Chawan (Tea Bowl) ■ Ohi Ame-yu (Amber Glaze) Asayama, Edo Period, Tea Ceremony Utensils, Antique Art, Period Piece, Antiques ■ It is quite old, with age-related wear and scratches. It has a history and a very good taste. There are no major cracks or chips. Size: Width 11.5 x Height 7.7 cm I have identified it as Ohi Ame-yu (Amber Glaze), but it is not certain. It is believed to be a work from around the Edo period. It is a work characterized by a warm reddish-brown amber glaze. From the round, bulging body to the lip, there is a natural curve, and the simple and elegant form created by hand-kneading symbolizes the aesthetics of Raku ware. The surface of the glaze shows natural flow and unevenness in color, creating a deep and flavorful expression due to changes during firing. The lip is finished flat, and slight distortions are proof of handmade craftsmanship. The accompanying wooden storage box is well-aged, suggesting that it has been carefully stored. It shows signs of age, and the history of many years of use is engraved upon it. It is a high-class amber-glazed masterpiece that embodies the spirit of Wabi-cha (tea of tranquility). 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.
