Fine Japanese Matcha Tea Bowl - Keizan Ono - Cinnabar Red Glaze with Gold Accents - Kyoyaki-Kiyomizu Ware

This is a stunning Japanese Matcha tea bowl (Chawan) crafted by the renowned Kyoto ceramic artist, Keizan Ono. This piece is a beautiful example of Kyoyaki-Kiyomizu ware, known for its elegance and sophisticated craftsmanship.

【Design & Technique】
The bowl is finished with a deep, vibrant Cinnabar (Copper Red) glaze, known as "Shinsha" in Japanese. A distinctive feature of this piece is the dramatic glaze flow on the front, which transitions into a shimmering gold gradient. This "landscape" (keshiki) created by the firing process is highly prized in tea ceremony aesthetics. The contrast between the rich red and the golden highlights gives the bowl a regal and modern feel while maintaining traditional roots.

【Condition】
The bowl is in excellent vintage condition. There are no visible chips, cracks, or repairs. Please refer to the photos for a detailed view of the surface and the artist's mark on the base.

【Dimensions】
Height: 7.8 cm
Diameter: 12.5 cm
Weight: 379 g

【Accessories】
Includes the original wooden box (Tomobako), signed and sealed by the artist, which guarantees its authenticity and serves for safe storage.
