Shino ware tea bowl made in the legendary Suigetsugama kiln which was built by one of the greatest Japanese potters of all times, Toyozo Arakawa (1894-1985).

Toyozo Arakawa was designated as Living National Treasure by Japanese Government in 1955 and well-known for reviving Shino glazes of Momoyama and Early Edo periods.

The Suigetsugama kiln itself was designated as an intangible cultural property of Tajimi City in 2010, as it has played an important role in maintaining ancient ceramic production methods of Mino ware.
