This is a wonderful Japanese chawan or teabowl, made by or 'in the manner of' the Japanese potter Shoji Hamada. Hamada didn't sign his work after 1924 and Since I'm not an expert of his work describing this chawan is nothing more than an educated guess. I found a similar chawan in a Millers'price guide from the year 2004 page 501 for comparison.(see picture 6)It has the same height 8.5 cm and is made in the same technic known as the "wax resist" method.
