Japanese Antique Pottery Bowl/'Tempo Oribe' Seto Ware/1830-1844/Wabisabi Bowl

About the Item

I would like to introduce a simple but very beautiful tea bowl. This is a type of pottery called "Tempo Oribe". "Tempo" is the name of the era in the Edo period, and Oribe is the name of the pottery. It refers to pottery that was fired between 1830 and 1844 in the late Edo period. This Oribe is a pottery made in Gifu Prefecture, and the one made by imitating the Oribe ware is "Tempo Oribe". This is a type of Seto ware made in Seto City, Aichi Prefecture. (Seto kilns are marked with red circles on the map.) "Three cranes" and "hidden raincoat" are drawn on this pottery. Both indicate auspiciousness. Crane means longevity. The origin of the kakuremino is ``a raincoat that can be worn to hide one's appearance. This means protecting yourself from danger. A little bit of red and green glaze is dripped on the edge of the pottery vessel to make a pattern. The reverse side has a very beautiful finish with a ring line drawn. Luckily there are no scratches and the condition is very good. A wooden pedestal is included to display the vessel. A dedicated wooden storage box is also included. "Tempo Oribe" is written on this wooden box. It is a rare item. Highly recommended. Also, I want many people to know the goodness of antiques, so I set the price reasonably.

  • Antique pottery bowl from Kumamoto, Japan / Shodai ware / Edo / 18-19 thcentury
    Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
    We have a unique Japanese aesthetic sense. And only we can introduce unique items through our purchasing channels in Japan and the experience we have gained so far, in such a way that no one else can imitate. It is speculated that this pottery was fired in the Shodai kiln in Kumamoto Prefecture during the Edo period, around the 18th century to the first half of the 19th century. It is characterized by the use of iron-rich clay and the appearance of a white glaze that looks like falling snow. As a feature, using clay with a lot of iron, It is characterized by a white glaze that looks like snow. This vessel is made with two types of glaze. One is straw ash glaze and the other is rice husk ash glaze. This rice husk ash glaze changes to a white glaze. This pot is very beautiful with a petal-like rim. However, there is one spot where the crack has been repaired. The part marked with a red arrow has been broken once, but it seems to have been glued later. Therefore, it will not leak even if you put water in it. It's not very noticeable so I wouldn't worry about it. This Shodai ware was made in Kumamoto Prefecture and was used there, so there are not many items in Japan. It is a rare item. Also, a wooden box is included, but it says "Karatsu ware...
