This hantsutsu-gata Kutani-yaki chawan (matcha bowl) features a finely crazed grey glaze decorated with red ume (plum blossoms).
Kutani-yaki (九谷焼) is a style of Japanese porcelain traditionally from Kutani, now a part of Kaga, Ishikawa, in the former Kaga Province, Japan. Porcelain wares made here became popular in the 17th century and after production in Kutani was revived in the 19th century, it is known for its intricate designs, called aka-e kinran-de (赤絵 金襴手) Kutani.
The 100-Prong chasen (百本立茶筅) and matching chashaku are made with dark kurotake bamboo.
