Japanese Asian Signed Studio Pottery Wabi-Sabi Red & Gold Glazed Yunomi Teacup

About the Item

A gorgeous Japanese studio pottery Yunomi teacup or sake cup that features a wonderful sumptuous crimson red glaze with dripping gold gilt glaze and various shifts in color and texture. This particular Yunomi encompasses the Japanese Wabi-Sabi aesthetic (which is so revered and coveted in Japan) - the appreciation of beauty that is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete in nature and embraces the principles of asymmetry, roughness, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and the appreciation of both natural objects and the forces of nature upon them. Signed by the maker/artist on the base with an impressed mark and also on the wooden storage box with a red seal. Listing as 20th century but could be older. From a Los Angeles estate/collection. A unique and engaging work. Would be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian pottery/ ceramics collection or a very eye-catching stand-alone accent work in about any setting. Cup dimensions: 2.5" high, 2.65" wide, 2.5" deep. Box dimensions: 4" high, 3.5" wide, 3.5" deep

It was done in a brilliant purple glaze over a robin egg blue background glaze. The bubbling and bursting effects during the firing renders the surface an artistic spotting effect. The color pallet recalls the Classic Jun Yao...
