| This exquisite piece is described as a yuteki guinomi (sake cup) by the potter; a sort of Tenmoku ware. The first Tenmoku wares to have found their way to Japan were brought back from China by Buddhist monks in the fourteenth century. The exotic vessels which are compared to pieces of Heaven were much prized by the Ashikaga Shoguns, who reigned over Japan between the 14th and 16th century. This particular cup with star like drops of iron crystals is a splendid example of the beauty of Tenmoku. The guinomi is in perfect condition. It will be shipped in a wooden box signed by Hiro; unfortunately, there is no information available about the potter. Dimensions: 8 x 4.5 cm (3.2 x 1.8 in); weight 80g (2.8 oz) More pictures available on demand Please make sure you read my Sales Policy Page and kindly inquire if you have any question. Some of the pieces presented in this catalog may be acquired through an interest free payment plan. | |||||||||||||
