Overall measurement is 10.5" and is 1.5" tall.

This is a beautiful vintage red lacquer candy bowl made by Benbo, a historic Ryukyu lacquerware workshop in Okinawa, Japan.

Benbo was a long-established Okinawan lacquerware workshop that began in the early Showa period, originally as the Okinawa Lacquer Craft Association, and later became known under the Benbo name. The workshop was loved for its refined and modern designs, and it played an important role in Okinawa’s Ryukyu lacquerware tradition. Benbo closed in 2001 after about 70 years of history.

It is a lovely piece for serving sweets, displaying small items, or as a decorative Okinawan lacquerware piece.
