The traditional vessel for mixing and serving sushi rice in Japan, hangiri are handmade from hinoki, Japanese cypress, and bound with solid copper bands that will patina beautifully with age. Available in 2 sizes: small is good for a couple or small family, while the large is big enough for a party. It's the perfect statement piece for the sushi lover, and a beautiful serving platform for a variety of dishes.
