Description: Vintage Japanese Wooden Oke Bucket for Bath This is a vintage handcrafted traditional Japanese wooden bucket made for scoping water in a bath like a ladle for bathing. Stout, sturdy, and natural brown color, it is made from precisely cut slats of wood held together by one twisted steel wire via tension.
