This magnificent chawan (tea bowl) was made by Koie Ryoji, one of the best known contemporary Japanese potters. This remarkable vessel, covered with the always fascinating oribe glaze, seems to have been born on the shores of an abundant sea. Its aquatic character is pronounced at the kodai (foot) where two pieces of shell are incrusted amid drops of emeralds. Yet, the abstract markings on the body of the bowl tell of the artists play in its making. They also convey his mastery of the craft, ...click for details

This rare chawan (tea bowl) is a Shodai-yaki (shodai ware).

The production of Shodai ware was stopped around the end of the Meiji period and the be ...click for details

Here is a beautiful tsutsu chawan (cylindrical tea bowl) made in the raku style, a Kyoto pottery tradition born more than four hundred years ago. It was created by Chojiro (? – 1589), a Kyoto potter, under the guidance of Sen-no-rikyu (1522-1591), a tea master, to cater to his needs for tea bowls that would echo the principles he set for the tea ceremony. Though raku ware has evolved, to some extent, throughout the years, the hand-shaped pottery has kept some basic characteristics, found in th ...click for details

Here is a magnificent Shino chawan (tea bowl) by one of the masters of the genre: Yamada Kazu, a renowned contemporary Japanese potter. This vessel is everything that has ever been remarkable about Shino ware for more than four hundred years; the immaculate white glaze which let iron oxide markings shine through, the always intriguing yuzu hada (lemon skin), and the coarse clay carved in the raw. And the kodai (foot) offers a dynamic show of perfect balance between its elements. This splendi ...click for details

Here is an exquisite tsutsu chawan (cylindrical tea bowl), made by Koie Ryoji, one of the best known contemporary potters in Japan and abroad. The vessel got dressed in black when it was taken out of the kiln during the firing and suddenly plunged in water (hiki-dashi technique), much like it is done will raku and seto-guro bowls. The result is a wonderful pitch black robe that offers enchanting contrasts when used to drink green tea. At the kodai (foot), the spectacular volcanic landscape se ...click for details
