Vintage Japanese Cast Iron Kettle called “Tetsubin.”
This is mini size, which is popular particularly among foreign tetsubin collectors.
This tetsubin was made in NAMBU, which is the place's name and is famous for tetsubin manufacturing.
The "Arare" (hail) motif is very popular one as a motif for Tetsubin.
Also, the shape of the widening toward the bottom is preferred by Japanese as being associated with better future.
There is a sign mark of Nambu on the side.
The grip is movable (see the picture).
Great addition to your Tetsubin collection.
Don't miss it.
