This is a contemporary Japanese Raku chawan (tea bowl), characterized by a soft black glaze with a striking stream of red glaze cascading across one side. The thick glaze creates a natural uneven texture and sheen, offering a tactile warmth and visual richness. The rim is subtly irregular, enhancing the handmade appeal, while the gently rounded body and low foot create a composed and grounded presence. Inside the bowl, the subtle variations in glaze tone reveal the refined aesthetics designed to harmonize with matcha. The foot is firmly shaped and retains marks from the firing process. This piece captures the rustic charm and elegance distinctive of Raku ware.
