| Kure is an ancient name for China, in Japanese. It is whence some of the first chawan (tea bowls) to enter Japan were made and this particular bowl is a rightful descendant to those classic vessels which influenced Japanese pottery and tea ceremony about 500 hundred years ago. The simple appearance of the bowl and its unpretentious character carry the spirit of the first tea masters, who favored such perfectly asymmetrical bowls; mirrors of the cosmos. The chawan is signed and in perfect condition. It will be shipped in a wooden box of particularly high quality made to fit this bowl only (tomobako). The lid is also signed by the potter: Shinichi. Dimensions: 13.5 cm x 7.5 cm (5.4 in x 3 in); weight 310 g (10.9 oz) More pictures available on demand.
