This is a tasteful Bizen-Yaki tea bowl made by Mr Shuichi Iwamoto (1935-) who is one of famous Bizen potters. A Bizen Yaki is located in Bizen Okayama. It is the oldest kiln of the "6 old kilns" in Japan such as Seto, Tokoname, Tanba, Echizen, Shigaraki and Bizen. It has begun since Heian period ( 800's) and has been enjyoing its prestige with their unique making process. They do not use a glaze and keep their natural way of firing. They take precious of a "Fusion of Fire and Clay" and a naivety that is made by these factors. Therefore, their design is not showy but simply beautiful. It changes its facade depending upon an angle you look from. It is an used item but there is no flaws and in good condition. Please enjoy your tea ceremony with this wonderful piece.
The original wooden box is provided with the artist's signature on the lid.
