This Kyo-yaki chawan (matcha bowl) is decorated with red and green ivy (蔦 - tsuta) draped over a crazed beige-ivory glaze. The bowl is made in the classic Ninsei (仁清) shape, with a slight waist or tightening of the torso, accompanied with a slightly inward facing lip.
This chawan was made by Eikō Miyaji (宮地英香), a workshop known for producing affordable and accessible iro-e and seasonal Kyo-yaki chawan, helping spread tea and tea culture.
Please note: there is natural variation in the glaze colour. The chawan you receive may have a more saturated beige than pictured.
