This is a Bizen-yaki matcha tea bowl, characterized by its texture and the various patterns created by kiln transformation, without the use of any glaze. Its unique, simple, earthy texture and warmth are its appeal. It is also a historical pottery, counted as one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan. This item is believed to have the "Hidasuki" pattern, one of the kiln transformations of Bizen-yaki, where the components of straw and the iron content of the clay chemically react, creating red lines. It has been carefully handled, so the condition is very good, with no cracks, chips, or stains. We are looking forward to your purchase if you understand that this item has been stored at home. <Size> Diameter: 11 cm Height: 9 cm Thank you for viewing.
