If you are involved in the tea ceremony, you can confidently hang it in the tokonoma (alcove). ① Shape (Form) A long, slender cylinder, slightly wider at the bottom. The mouth tapers, with a flowing line overall → A very typical shape for the tokonoma in a tea ceremony or for placing flowers. ② Color and Glaze Deep, clear Ruri-yu (lapis lazuli glaze / cobalt blue) The glaze appears to flow in a single streak. → Proof of being handmade and one-of-a-kind. This blue is often seen in Kyo-yaki that emphasizes **"Stillness," "Night," and "Water."** ③ The "Kousai" style Focuses on color and shape alone, without flashy painting. Practical beauty for tea ceremony practitioners and flower arrangers. A common style in Kyo-yaki from the late Showa period. ④ Uses Single-flower vase, branches (thin) for tokonoma, Buddhist altar, or entrance * Because it is tall, a small amount of flowers looks best. ⑤ Value Guide (Reference) This type is valued more as "vessels for a good life" than as art. Please use it. ・A vessel that is completed by adding flowers. ・Glaze that is safe for holding water. ・The value does not decrease because there are no scratches or chips. ① "Rank" as a tea ceremony utensil "Upper middle" class, usable for practice to formal tea ceremonies Reasons It is Kyo-yaki and made by an artist (Kousai). Both the glaze and shape are calm and not overly assertive. It is not eccentric and does not interfere with the tokonoma. Positioning of rank (guide) More practical than the highest or semi-formal ranks (practice to formal). Not everyday tableware. ② Seasonality (When to use the vessel) "Year-round, leaning towards summer" • Ruri (dark blue) = symbol of water and coolness • Long, slender cylindrical shape → Visually cool • Small mouth, constricting the flowers → Neat Especially suitable times: • June (rainy season) • July-August (midsummer) • Early September (lingering summer heat) Season (Usability) Reasons: Spring → △ / Flowers become the main focus Summer → ◎ / Coolness, optimal Autumn → ○ / Okay for wild grasses and branches Winter → △ / Ruri has a slightly cold impression Summary Tea ceremony rank: Practical upper class, OK for practice to formal tea ceremonies Season: Mainly for summer, usable year-round Value: "A vessel that is completed by using it" rather than displaying it No pets, no smoking Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive, as it is stored at home.
