A curated pair of finely crafted Japanese chawan (tea bowls), each accompanied by its original signed tomobako (wooden storage box), reflecting both authenticity and traditional craftsmanship. The left bowl is a Hakeme (brush-mark) piece, featuring a soft, matte gray glaze with subtle speckles, characteristic of natural ash firing. The right bowl displays the rustic charm of Shino ware — a type of Seto ware known for its textured, earthy surface and rich brown tones, often associated with the “Irohō” (fire-blessed) aesthetic. Both pieces exhibit a refined and harmonious appearance, while their well-balanced forms sit comfortably in the hand. The interiors present a soft, luminous depth, inviting quiet contemplation in line with the aesthetics of wabi-sabi. Each detail reflects careful craftsmanship, from the precisely finished foot to the controlled firing that produced this consistent yet lively surface. The presence of a signed tomobako further supports its origin as a preserved studio work. Condition: Very good condition, with no cracks or restorations. The crackle pattern is intentional and part of the artistic process. Dimensions: • Diameter: approx. 12 cm • Height: approx. 8 cm Measurements are approximate and provided for reference.
