This stunning chawan (matcha bowl) features a classic wan-nari shape and a striking turquoise ice-crack celadon glaze (hyōretsukannyū seiji- 氷裂貫入青磁). This style of glazing, consisting of multiple layers of cracks, is also called tortoiseshell crack celadon (kikkōkannyū seiji- 亀甲貫入青磁) or snowflake celadon in English.

This chawan was made by Okayama Junzō (岡山純三) of Tōsen Kiln (陶仙窯) and is stamped 光軍. Born in 1946, Okayama-san excels at producing these ice-crack celadon wares.
