About the work
A hand-formed Shino ware cup by Kato Toyohisa, showcasing his mastery of traditional Mino firing techniques. The surface reveals a dynamic interplay of scarlet blush and milky-white feldspathic glaze, enhanced by natural kiln effects. Its slightly irregular form embodies the wabi-sabi aesthetic, inviting quiet reflection with each use.
Though this piece does not include its original tomobako (wooden storage box), it retains its full authenticity and charm as a functional and collectible vessel.
