TORUKO-AO GUINOMI

I put together a rather short video slideshow of a nice toruko-ao guinomi by the late master of this style, Kato Kenji. It has the appearance of being larger than it is, like a chawan or simple bowl for food but its actual scale gives away its purpose. Though I suppose it could be used for water, whisky or even milk, I think that for most viewers its ideal purpose is immediate and undeniable, sake and keep it coming.
