This is a Tenmoku tea bowl crafted during the Song dynasty (960–1279), distinguished by its unique glaze pattern known as "hare's fur" (tokō). The intricate linear patterns, created by the iron-rich glaze melting at high temperatures, give each piece an entirely unique and captivating beauty. The wide rim and elegantly curved shape are ideal for enjoying the froth and aroma of matcha, embodying both functionality and artistic excellence that characterize Song dynasty ceramics. Even after nearly a thousand years, the bowl retains its glossy glaze and vivid hare's fur patterns, with the foot rim faithfully crafted in adherence to Song-era techniques. It remains in exceptionally good condition with no significant damage or cracks. This Tenmoku tea bowl is not only a practical tool for tea enthusiasts but also a highly valuable historical artifact and a masterpiece of cultural heritage.
