This is a black Raku tea bowl traditionally attributed to Tannyu, the 10th-generation head of the Raku family, active during the late Edo period in Japan. The piece exhibits the distinctive characteristics of Raku ware, including a hand-formed, rounded body with slight asymmetry and a thick, lustrous black glaze. Notable red glaze marks appear on the side, a feature sometimes associated with intentional artistic accents in later Raku works. The foot is carved in a spiral form, and a circular seal mark is impressed near the base, which supports the attribution. The bowl shows appropriate signs of aging but remains in good condition without visible cracks or chips.
