Kyō Ware Chawan (Tea Bowl), Japan

This Japanese Kyō ware chawan represents the essence of Kyōto's traditional ceramic craft. Kyō ware (Kyō-yaki) is a long-established pottery tradition of the Kyōto area, known for rich colours, refined workmanship and ornate decoration, and is much loved by devotees of the Japanese tea ceremony and collectors of ceramics. The bowl is hand-painted with flowers, with gold patterning set against vivid blue, red and green, expressing an elegant, noble Japanese aesthetic. The interior glaze is warm and soft, the mouth moderate in size and the bowl steady in the hand, making it both highly practical and fine to look at.

Old Kutani Iron-Glazed Chawan (Tea Bowl), Japan

A handmade iron-glazed chawan in the 'Ko-Kutani' (Old Kutani) style, with the form and motifs characteristic of early Kutani ware; its firing retains a traditional texture and a sense of history. The coarse stoneware body is covered with a pale off-white ground glaze, and the bowl is painted in vivid vermilion iron pigment with figures, accented with dots of yellow, blue and green enamels, giving a lively, unrestrained composition with strong visual impact. The base shows clear marks of hand throwing and kiln transformation; the body is slightly sandy, and the surface displays natural glaze crackle, typical of an old hand-fired piece. At the centre of the base is an appraisal label of the kind commonly seen in the Japanese resale market; the unglazed foot ring reveals the clay body. The piece is accompanied by a certificate of identification written in ink and its original wooden box, the lid inscribed with the title and signature. With clear documentation, it is a collection-grade work of credible provenance. (Shows marks from the making process)

Oribe Ware Irregular Chawan (Tea Bowl), Japan (Without Tomobako)

An irregularly shaped matcha bowl in the style of Oribe ware (Oribe-yaki), Japan. The form leans toward free-form modelling, with a gently undulating rim, and carries a strong folk-craft, handmade character. The exterior is glazed over a light-coloured clay body, mainly in clear and green glazes, and the surface shows natural crackle (craquelure), a texture that forms naturally during high-temperature reduction firing. The bowl is decorated with a vine-and-flower motif painted in reddish brown, with fluid brushwork and a lively composition, expressing the 'beauty of asymmetry' and freely sketched naturalness characteristic of Oribe. The green glaze has a strong sheen that contrasts sharply with the texture of the unglazed body, giving the piece visual tension while keeping its rustic simplicity.

Kutani Ware Tea Set, Japan

A traditional Japanese Kutani ware tea set, complete with a teapot and five teacups, full in form and symmetrical in design. The ivory-colored porcelain body has a naturally crackled glaze, showing the aged texture of old ceramics. The painted theme is “pine, bamboo and golden pheasants”, one of the classic Kutani compositions, symbolizing longevity, wealth and the beauty of nature. The colors are clearly layered, painted in red, green, blue, gold and other mineral enamels, with fine brushwork and a realistic style. The teapot has a side handle suited to Japanese brewing habits, the lid fits well and it pours smoothly. Well preserved overall, the cups have no cracks or damage inside or out and the painting is clear, giving the set both practical and collecting value.

Set of Five Kutani Ware Lidded Cups, Japan

A set of five lidded cups from the renowned Japanese Kutani ware tradition; the bases are clearly marked “九谷 華” (Kutani Hana). The glaze colors are distinctly layered and the patterns delicate and elegant. The set is painted in Kutani's characteristic overglaze enamel technique on a white porcelain body: white flowers on an emerald-green ground, dotted with yellow centers, bright yet with an antique charm — a typical example of the domestic craft aesthetic of the Shōwa to early Heisei period. Kutani ware has developed from the Edo period to the present day and is known for rich colors, bold lines and hand-painted designs. These cups have a green-glaze ground painted with five-petaled white flowers, their centers dotted with golden-yellow glaze, the overall palette clearly layered. The cups are small with rounded lid knobs, and suit a tea setting, desserts or soup alike — everyday Japanese craft objects for both use and display.

Hagi Ware Chawan with Children at Play, Japan

A Japanese Hagi ware chawan with a warm clay body and a natural, soft glaze; fine iron specks and glaze runs are visible on the surface, showing the rustic character particular to Hagi ware. The outer wall is hand-painted with two children flying a kite, the lines light and quick and the colors pale and elegant, vivid and expressive — the kind of everyday subject and playful style often seen in the Shōwa period. It has a small, wide mouth and a shallow body with a thick, stable foot ring, and sits comfortably in the hand; suitable for daily tea drinking, it can also serve as a dessert bowl or a small vessel at a tea gathering.

Price NT$ 700≈ US$ 21

Kutani Ware Kyūsu Teapot, Japan

This Kutani ware kyūsu teapot is in the classic aka-e and gilt style. Over a soft, warm off-white glaze, the body and lid carry large red compositions, with details picked out in gold, giving a noble, opulent look that still keeps its Japanese character. The lid is covered with floral patterns: fine lines extend from the edges of the red petals and spread outward like fireworks, and the flower centers are outlined in gold so the design glints softly in the light. The sides of the body show a rhythm of flower clusters and patterns, with figures and plants added in places. The palette is mainly red and gold against the off-white crackled glaze, creating the dense yet orderly decoration characteristic of Kutani ware.

Shōwa-period Vintage Vacuum Flask Set, Japan

This set of vintage Japanese vacuum flasks from the Shōwa period is a classic of “Shōwa lifestyle aesthetics,” closely followed by collectors. It includes an early vacuum flask by the world-famous Tiger brand and a deep-green patterned vacuum flask with strong period character. Objects like these are not only a microcosm of Japanese post-war industrial design; their signature metallic finish and bright coatings also make them standout pieces for creating a nostalgic atmosphere.
