Antique Japanese c.1950\'s Cast Iron Tea Ceremony Furogama
This vintage mid Show era (c. 1950) Japanese cast iron Furogama (tea hibachi & kettle) was utilized in the Japanese formal chado (tea ceremony) to heat water. It is made of a thick heavy cast iron and the lid to the kama is made of bronze with a nice bud blossom finial. It has side rings on both the kama (kettle) as well as the furo (hibachi). There are venting holes around the top of the furo with larger oval holes on both sides to tend the fire. It stands sturdy and erect on three legs.
This furogama is 15\" (38 cm) tall to the top of the finial on its lid and approximately 13\" (33 cm) in diameter. Having been stored away for nearly half a century and remains in excellent condition and shows little to no wear inside and out.
