AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Southern Song Dynasty Black-Glazed Tea Bowl

A beautiful and authentic tea bowl dating to the Southern Song Dynasty (1127–1279).

The bowl displays a particularly attractive and lustrous glaze, together with a classic and well-proportioned form characteristic of tea bowls of this period. The deep, dark glaze gives the piece an elegant and understated appearance.

Of particular interest are the rare iron-rust-colored spots visible on the glaze, adding rich variation and distinctive character to the dark-glazed surface. This special glaze effect makes the bowl particularly appealing and enhances its value as a collector’s piece.

With its beautiful black glaze, distinctive iron-rust-colored decoration and classic form, this is a very fine and highly attractive collector’s piece from the Southern Song period.

The item will be carefully and securely packed and shipped from Japan.
