AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
吉田昇功 Yoshida Shoko Kyo ware 'Gold Overglaze Weeping Cherry Blossoms Tea Bowl' with Original Box (Tomobako)
with seal 'Shoko' 昇功
Across the gold‑ground surface, Yoshida Shōkō paints the long, drooping branches of weeping cherry blossoms with a clarity that reflects her Kyoto‑ware training, the white, pink and deep red petals arranged in a rhythm that feels both decorative and quietly measured, and the seal “Shōkō” affirms the practiced hand of a ceramic artist who has long worked with seasonal motifs, the bowl’s warm glow suggesting how its presence might deepen over time—brought out for tea on early spring days, its gold catching shifting light and allowing small, personal moments to gather around it as the years pass, all kept together with its tomobako.
