Japanese Seto Pottery Large High BOWL
14" x 4.5" Very Good condition, with one hairline crack about 1" in length with a slight loss of glaze on outside rim. Also a circular crack inside bottom of bowl. Beautiful soft yellow glaze with 7 typical marks inside of bowl from organic material used as "saggars," during the firing process in kiln. This piece probably comes from the Seto area kilns. It's common everyday functional art, very Shibui, called, "Ishi-zara," or stone bowl by the Japanese. This item as all my items were obtained during the 10+ years that I lived in Japan. Quite rare to find large ishi-zara with minimal amounts of damage.
