This is a "Pale Iron Glaze Straw-Painted Tea Bowl" by Kenji Funaki of Fushime-yaki in Shimane Prefecture. Kenji Funaki is known as a craftsman of Fushime-yaki, who creates folk art pottery. He often makes slipware pieces, so tea bowls like this one, which are simple and wabi-sabi in style, are rare and unusual. - In pristine, undamaged condition. - Approximately 12.5 cm in diameter, 8 cm in height. - Comes with a wooden box, a descriptive slip, and a cloth. For tea ceremony, matcha tea bowl. Thank you for viewing.
