(19.69 x 20 x 15.88 cm), Kyōyaki ware, Ko Kiyomizu type, Seikanji kiln; stoneware with underglaze enamels and gold, Japan, 18th century, Portuguese traders first introduced tobacco to Japan in the 1500s. After repeated attempts to ban its use, the government legalized its cultivation in 1625. Throughout the Edo period, Japanese used long pipes with small bowls, which, when filled with finely shredded tobacco, afforded the smoker only a puff or two. Tobacco trays held a hiire, a small container with hot ashes—used to light the pipe—and a container half filled with water into which the exhausted contents of the pipe could be safely emptied. Tea masters placed tobacco sets in the waiting areas used by their guests prior to tea gatherings. This ceramic example imitates the construction of wooden tobacco boxes but is richly decorated with trailing calabash gourd vines rendered in blue, green, and gold enamels and reticBandBox.
