Vintage Japanese Chawan, Tea Bowl - Cream Glaze religious statues Made from hinoki (cypress) andA vintage Japanese tea bowl featuring a tapered silhouette that leads to a slightly flared rim. The body is finished in a semi opaque, oat toned glaze densely peppered with dark iron spots (teppun) from the firing. The unglazed base reveals a contrasting, vibrant reddish orange clay body, a cleanly defined foot ring (kodai), and an incised potter's mark accompanied by dark iron slip accents along the glaze line.
