Kyoto Shoraku Kiln – Black Raku Tea Bowl with White Crane Motif

Shoraku Kiln, Kyoto, Japan | Kuro-raku Matcha Tea Bowl with Crane Motif, Black-Glazed Tea Utensil

Raku ware is one of the most representative forms of pottery in Japanese tea culture, with deep ties to the wabi-cha spirit championed by Sen no Rikyu. Compared with ceramics that pursue regularity, symmetry and lavish decoration, Raku ware places greater emphasis on the feel of the object in the hand, its natural form, and the intimate relationship between the tea bowl and its user. This bowl in the kuro-raku style is covered with a thick black glaze; the color is not a perfectly even pure black, but shifts between deep black, ink-brown and subtle luster according to the angle of the light. The rim has a natural undulation rather than a strictly perfect circle, expressing the irregular beauty prized in traditional hand-formed tea bowls.

Japanese Kutani Ware Tea Bowl – Gilded Floral & Peacock Motif with Wooden Box

Kutani Gold-Decorated Bird-and-Flower Tea Bowl・Aka-e Peony and Peacock Design・With Original Wooden Tomobako

Kutani ware is one of Japan's most representative traditional ceramic crafts, known for its vivid colors, rich pictorial subjects and decorative quality. This tea bowl takes a rounded, full form, with a smoothly flaring rim and a belly that draws naturally inward, set on a small foot ring, giving the whole a steady yet gentle proportion. Most striking is the finely painted bird-and-flower decoration on the body, dominated by russet brown and vermilion tones, depicting blossoming flowers, layered overlapping leaves, and birds with delicately rendered feather texture. Touches of gold appear in places, making the bird-and-flower motifs all the more sumptuous against the soft glaze.

Vintage Japanese Copper Water Vessel — Traditional Tea Ceremony Mizutsugi

Tea Ceremony Copper Water Pot・Antique Bronze-Toned Handled Mizutsugi・Retro Tea Ceremony Water Vessel

A vintage Japanese copper water pot in the traditional handled (teiryo) form. The body has a solid, composed cylindrical shape, paired with a naturally curved metal handle, a round lid and a side spout, expressing the plain yet practical design spirit of traditional Japanese tea ceremony wares. In Japanese tea ceremony culture, the mizutsugi is a vessel used to replenish water for the tea gathering, commonly seen in the preparation of the tea ceremony and the tidying of the tea setting. Depending on the school and the situation of use, the material, form and purpose of a mizutsugi may differ. The most captivating aspect of this water pot is the antique bronze tone that has formed naturally on its surface. Through years of storage, the original metallic luster has gradually turned to deep brown, russet copper and, in places, verdigris tones. Different areas show oxidation of varying depth, creating a layered, rustic texture.

Japanese Chōjū-giga Inspired Tea Bowl

Kozan-ji Choju Giga Aka-e Rabbit and Frog Matcha Bowl

A vintage Japanese matcha bowl, decorated with inspiration from the Choju Giga (Frolicking Animals scrolls), one of the most representative works of traditional Japanese art, bringing the lively anthropomorphized poses of rabbits, frogs and other animals onto a warm, understated ceramic vessel. The Choju Giga is a celebrated classical Japanese picture scroll, and the surviving work has deep ties to Kozan-ji temple in Toganoo, Kyoto. In the painting, rabbits, frogs, monkeys and other animals imitate human activities, and the spirited brushwork presents scenes full of humor and vitality. Particularly worth noting is the side of the bowl, which bears the characters "Kozan-ji" within a rectangular frame, echoing the Choju Giga theme and giving the whole piece a distinctly classical Japanese artistic character.

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)
