I’ve already taken care of the rough international shipping part :)★Provenance:This is from my grandparents’ collection in Japan. They were all about high-quality items and spent decades collecting well-made pieces, which are now vintage treasures. I’ve shipped many of them internationally to my home in the US and kept them, but I'm running out of space. I’m finding new homes where they’ll be appreciated.
