Description
If you enjoy tea ceremony or just having a nice bowl of tea, this vintage Japanese chawan or tea bowl may be for you. We believe it to be Kyo ware, made by one of the many kilns in & around Kyoto. It has a lovely, shallow, notched footed shape, & measires about 4.8" across & about 2.6" high. The glaze is white over dark brown clay, as shown in the photos. There are two sets of what appear to be dango balls (mochi balls on a stick, with sweet soy glaze), done in blue underneath the white glaze. This chawan is in very good condition with no visible damage, & weighs about 7.5 oz, unpacked. This chawan would be a nice addition to a teaware collection, especially if you study Japanese tea ceremony, Chanoyu or Chado, under one of the San-Senke schools, or three houses of tea: Urasenke, Omotetsenke, & Mushakōjisenke. If you are interested in tea, please see our other chawan & Chado, Chanoyu, Way of Tea items for sale in our shop. We're happy to answer any questions or send additional photos!
