This wonderful chawan (tea bowl) was made by one of the masters of Hagi pottery, Kaneta Sanzaemon (1920-2004). The silky glaze with shades of soft purple veils the famed red clay of Hagi, whose pottery has been revered for centuries by tea masters and drinkers alike. Here again, the sensuality of Hagi ware is revealed in the most sublime way.
The name Sanzaemon has been associated with Hagi pottery since1817 when the first Sanzaemon founded a kiln, called Tenchozan-gama in the city of Hagi. This splendid tea bowl is the work of the seventh Kaneta Sanzaemon who specialized in ware for the tea ceremony and was the father of Kaneta Masanao, the well known contemporary Hagi potter. The chawan is signed and in perfect condition. It will be shipped in a signed box.
