Item Details
Description
This teabowl was made in Japan by an unknown artisan in the 1500s. These tea bowls with flared foot and grasping silhouette are based on a Korean design and termed Goki Chawan. There are large silica deposits throughout the base that were favored by Japanese aesthetes. There are old aka-urushi and gold repairs and significant tea residue in the basin indicating a great deal of use. Please see those similar at the Smithsonian Institution’s Freer Gallery. The bowl stands 8.4cm tall and is 11.3cm across the mouth. It comes in a custom box fashioned by Hakoyoshi in Tokyo. 3-1/4"h x 4-1/2"dia.
