A superb celadon single-flower vase, a tea ceremony utensil, made by "Shogyo Hozan," the 20th generation of Unrin-in Hozan. "Unrin-in Hozan" is the name of a line of renowned Kyoyaki (Awata-yaki) ceramic artists from the Unrin-in family. The first generation dates back to the late Muromachi period (late 1500s). They played a central role in Awata-yaki as the official kiln for the Imperial Court and the shogunate in Kyoto. They were given the name "Hozan" at the time and are considered the founders of Kyoyaki, and their tradition has been passed down to the present day.
