Tea Bowl ■ Old Iga Ware, Edo Period, Tsubaki Takara Hori no Te? Repaired, Tea Ceremony Utensils, Antique Art, Period Piece, Antiques ■ This is quite old and shows signs of aging due to the passage of time. It has a history and a very good taste. Repaired. Size: Width 16.7 x Height 6.4 cm I couldn't read the box inscription in detail. It has a wild feel and a charming texture that makes you feel the "earth." This is a ceramic tea bowl from the Edo period, a work with a wabi-sabi beauty that has been repaired. A pale yellowish-green to brownish glaze is applied overall, and you can see the natural color changes during firing. There is a natural curve from the round, bulging body to the rim, and you can feel the simple modeling by hand-kneading. Cracks in several places have been joined with gold, and new beauty has been born through the repair. The texture of the old pottery has an expression that layers the passage of time and the craftsmanship of the artisan. The accompanying wooden box is inscribed with a sumi ink inscription, suggesting that it has been carefully stored as a tea utensil with a proper history. This is a high-class item that symbolizes the Japanese aesthetic of repairing damage and continuing to use it with care. Shipping is planned via Sagawa Express (or Mercari delivery depending on the location). Free shipping. We will pack it so that it will not break, so please rest assured. We may suddenly cancel the listing. This is a one-of-a-kind item with high rarity, and the price may increase. Please purchase as soon as possible. Thank you very much. [Management 260217]
