Tea bowl - Ceramic - Bamboo-and-Tiger Tea Bowl

The "Bamboo and Tiger" matcha bowl, produced by the renowned, long-established Japanese Kutani ware studio "Kutani Bitouen," is crafted using traditional polychrome painting and gilding techniques. Set against a background of white crackle glaze, it features a motif of bamboo and a tiger—characterized by delicate lines, vivid colors, and exquisitely refined gold-traced outlines.

Accompanied by its original wooden box and *fukusa* wrapping cloth, the piece remains in excellent overall condition.
