This tea bowl, believed to have been crafted between the Momoyama period and the early Edo period, is a precious piece that embodies rich tradition and history. Characteristic of Shino ware, it features a thick glaze and a warm, soft hue that evoke the essence of natural landscapes. Notably, the surface is adorned with fine crackles, known as "kan-nyu," which have developed over time, imparting a unique texture and depth to the bowl.
The bowl's gentle form fits comfortably in the hand, resonating with the spirit of the tea ceremony and offering a calming presence during tea gatherings. Additionally, it comes with a well-preserved wooden box, indicating the care with which it has been maintained. Such Shino tea bowls are highly valued by tea enthusiasts and antique collectors alike, as they offer a tangible connection to Japanese aesthetics and history.
