This handcrafted tea ceremony jar pairs a subtly translucent glaze with warm, slow-fired Hagi stoneware that shows fine mineral particles and brush marks beneath the surface. The jar's slightly constricted middle, wider top and base, and a wood nuributa lid reflect a functional, rustic aesthetic suited to seasonal selection and careful pairing with tea bowls. A Tenchou kiln stamp on the base authenticates its lineage and history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Size: H 7.1 in × W 6.1 in (about H 18 cm × W 15.5 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Weight: 58.4 oz (1658 g)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Materials: ceramic body; wood nuributa lid with lacquer\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Style: Hagi ware rustic stoneware in Anko-gata shape\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Glaze: pale white translucent glaze revealing mineral particles and brush marks\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Mark: stamped Tenchou kiln (historic kiln lineage)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Use: chanoyu utensil — tea ceremony jar \/ ceramic water pot for tea prep\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-left: 20px;\"\u003e * Condition: good overall; lacquer peeling at the lid edge\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCraft and provenance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHagi-yaki originates from techniques brought from Korea in the 16th century; the example here demonstrates the slow, low-temperature firing that gives Hagi its soft, warm touch and subtle glaze crazing. The Tenchou kiln stamp on the base ties the piece to a studio with a documented history, and the nuributa lid—wood lacquered—is consistent with traditional mizusashi construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesign and daily use\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Anko-gata silhouette—wider at top and bottom with a gentle constriction—creates a generous internal volume for holding water while remaining visually balanced beside tea bowls. The pale white glazed jar functions as a Tea ceremony jar and Ceramic water pot; its understated surface complements rather than competes with other utensils during tea preparation. The wood nuributa lid sits securely while offering the tactile warmth preferred during chanoyu service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare and handling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandle the ceramic body with clean, dry hands and avoid sudden temperature changes to protect the glaze. Wipe the wood nuributa lid with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately; occasional gentle polishing of lacquered edges can reduce visible wear. The piece is ready to use for tea prep or display as a Japanese pottery example.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the seller\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffered by Wabisabi Antiques, the jar is presented in good condition with a note that there is some peeling of lacquer at the lid edge.
