About the Item

A stunning Japanese stoneware studio pottery chawan tea bowl that features a beautiful, heavy and sumptuously multi-glaze with wonderful shifts in color and texture. This bowl is without question one of our personal favorites. This particular piece 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. Listing as 20th century but could be older. This unique work (along with others we will be listing) came from a collector of fine Japanese and Asian ceramics - a collection like no other we have seen before. 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. Dimensions: 3.25" high, 5.25" wide, 5.25" deep.
