Found this interesting item at a thrift store but have no idea what it is.
Have only found one similar image on the Internet and they referred to it as a sake jug.
What is it and how was it used?
Thx

Yes a sake jug. Shops would sell sake despenced into customer provided containers (like growler beer sales).

Thx TA!
One more question… Trying to determine the vintage of this cask. Is this a practice that is currently done. Done back in the 60s? Done 30s 40s?
I think up to the 40's then they tended to use wooden casks and Western bottling became the norm.
