He is celebrated as one of the great masters of Kyo -yaki ware. This tea bowl is characterized by its bold painting, and the colors used are very beautiful.\u003cbr\u003eHe created a variety of styles in his pottery.\u003cbr\u003eThe motif of this tea bowl depicts Chinese sages. They were strongly influenced by the ideas of Laozi and Zhuangzi, and did not seek power or fame or fortune, but rather lived lives of free conversation, drinking together, and playing the koto.\u003cbr\u003eThe use of beautiful colors makes this tea bowl very impactful. Unlike newer pieces, the colors of the clay and glaze have depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bowl also has beautiful glaze cracks (Kannyu) on a white background. Kannyu is a crack pattern of the glaze that occurs during cooling after firing due to the difference in shrinkage between the glaze and the base material, and is different from cracks and scratches when cracking. Ordinary pottery is glazed on the base material and then baked at a high temperature of 1200 to 1300 degrees, depending on the type of glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt that time, the glaze melts and forms a glass-like layer that covers the pottery.\u003cbr\u003eThe temperature of the pottery itself drops after it is baked, but the degree of shrinkage at that time differs between the base material of the pottery body and the glaze, so if this difference is large, the glaze will become cracked and harden. ..\u003cbr\u003eThe charm of this bowl is that the color and atmosphere change as you use it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e□ Size:  H 3.1in ×  W 5.1in（about H8cm×13cm ）\u003cbr\u003e□ Weight : 11.1oz (316g)\u003cbr\u003e□ Material : ceramic\u003cbr\u003e□ Boxed : wooden box ※No accessories other than the box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003econdition...\u003cbr\u003eIt is in very good condition, but there are small scratches and dirt due to aging.\u003cbr\u003eWhat may look like cracks on old tea bowls are a phenomenon that occurs during use and do not affect the use of the bowl.
