【Masterpiece!】Chinese Antique Art Chinese Antique Ceramics Jian Kiln 【Kugyo】Engraved Mark Hemmoku Temmoku Tea Bowl Tea Ceremony Utensils Tea Utensil Temmoku Tea Bowl This is a Temmoku tea bowl made in the Jian kiln in Fujian Province, China. It's an amazing piece that seems to draw you in. Please judge by the images! It's a wonderful tea bowl! Numerous brown vertical streaks on the black glaze look like the awns (禾) of rice ears! The inscription "Kugyo" is visible on the foot! Kugyo is pronounced as "kugyo" or "gugo"... It refers to the food and drink of the Emperor, and sometimes the food, drink, and utensils of the Retired Emperor, Empress, and Imperial Prince. During the samurai era, it was a general term for the food, drink, and utensils of the Shogun! I cannot write that it was an item for such a noble person, but... the work itself is a masterpiece of the highest quality! No damage! There are some signs of use inside the tea bowl, but it is generally in good condition! Image 12 There is a small pinhole-like spot and a glaze that looks like it's dripping, but it's not a scratch! 【A magnificent Hemmoku Temmoku vessel!】 Rim diameter: approx. 12.4cm Height: approx. 7.1cm Foot diameter: approx. 4.1cm Since it came out without a box, I have included an old box as a protective box. The Sanada string is not attached; please consider it a service box! 【Google Search!】 is Mercari Pon-chan ...
