"Tsuboyayaki: The southernmost Japanese prefecture, Okinawa, was once its own kingdom for more than five hundred years (1372 - 1879). The Ryukyu Kingdom and the society and culture that developed around it was a crossroads between Southeast Asia, China, Korea, and Japan. Tsuboyayaki or Tsuboya ware is the traditional pottery technique of the Ryukyu culture, and is well-known throughout Japan. Recently, the kilns of Okinawa have been so popular that they sell their products to retailers at markets held every 3 months where buyers line up for 2-3 hours just to get in.\u00A0\nPRODUCT INFO\u00A0\n\nDIAMETER\n\u00A0cm ( in)\nHEIGHT\n\u00A0cm (in)\nVOLUME\n\u00A0ml ( fl oz)\nWEIGHT\n\u00A0grams ( oz)\nMeasurements above are approximate\nMATERIAL\nCeramic\nNOTE\nUse mild soap and soft sponge or cloth for washing.
