This splendid chawan has the characteristics of a classic tea bowl and the timelessness of an exceptional vessel. It was made by Suzuki Goro, a master of both orthodox and modern styles of pottery. The Oribe tradition, born more than four hundred years ago, has been a perfect playfield for the artist who has kept redefining his craft much as the innovative Oribe wares caused a stir in the quiet tea rooms of the Momoyama period (1583-1600). Adorned by primitive, abstract markings, this particu ...click for details

This magnificent chawan (tea bowl) is a perfect embodiment of the Oribe tradition of Japanese pottery by one of its masters: Suzuki Goro. Oribe ware was born to be used during the tea ceremony in rooms that are designed to be micro cosmoses and where every element is itself an image of everything that is. This includes tea bowls, which play the role of chalices during those ceremonies. Oribe chawan which are often asymmetric are some of the most spectacular vessels.

Here is yet another beautiful chawan (tea bowl), made by a very productive yet little known contemporary Hagi potter named Watanabe Sakaizumi, at his kiln called Sakaizumi-gama. The elegant vessel presents some of the attractive tones of Hagi ware: pink and purple subtly entwined. The bowl stands on a strong and elaborate kodai (foot) where the earthenware seems to gradually become stone, in a microcosmic garden.
The chawan is signed and in perfect condition. It will be shipped in a signed b ...click for details

This wonderful chawan (tea bowl) was made by a potter named Yoneda Mantaro. The attractive form and colors of this vessel are the work of a talented craftsman, but it is at the kodai (foot) that, as with men, that can be best judged. There, shapes and shades maintain a harmonious relationship and echo the grandeur of master Shino tea bowls.
Yoneda Mantaro, born in 1953, was an apprentice to Suzuki Goro for four years. That elegant silhouette which stands on the pedestal of a four hundred yea ...click for details

From a Japanese viewpoint, it is the exoticism of this unique chawan (tea bowl) that first calls out and intrigues. But is only once held in the hands that this fantastic vessel transforms into a magic chalice, which seems to have been brought from distant lands, all the way down the legendary Silk Road, by Aeolus himself. It is through the mind of a master craftsman, Kato Takuo (1917-2005) that this tea bowl has materialized. A potter who himself attained the Olympian summit of his craft whe ...click for details

Tenmoku wares are some of the most magnificent and difficult potteries to make, and within that world of exquisite ceramics, the chawan (tea bowl) is the crown jewel. A great Tenmoku chawan, more than a piece of heaven, is the image of heaven itself. Looking inside a Tenmoku bowl, made by Unokawa Kazumasa, is like gazing deep into the cosmos. There and then the profound essence of the vessel can be known, as one wonders whether she is looking inward or outward; probably both.
