A vintage Japanese suribachi never been used, a ceramic grinding bowl used for food preparation (Without the pestle surikogi stick). The bowl has a distinctive ridged interior designed to efficiently grind sesame seeds, spices, or other ingredients.
The bowl shown features an earthy brown glaze on the outside and a natural, creamy finish on the inside, with finely grooved lines radiating from the center. These grooves help create friction for grinding. Typical of traditional Japanese kitchenware.
Ideal for making sauces like goma-ae (sesame dressing), pastes, or baby food, this compact suribachi is both functional and aesthetically pleasing in a classic Japanese kitchen setting.
