A Kuro Raku (Black Glaze) tea bowl (Chawan)

Showa era (1926-1989)

About the work

An exquisite Kuro Raku tea bowl crafted by Kakunyû, the 14th generation Raku master, following the time-honored tradition of hand-shaped and carved Raku chawan. The bowl is characterized by its solid and weighty presence, with a beautifully glossy surface that captures the essence of Kuro Raku. Subtle variations in the glaze lend the piece a dynamic yet refined appearance. The footrim bears the seal of Raku, a hallmark of the Raku lineage.

This exceptional piece is housed in its original signed wooden storage box (tomobako), featuring calligraphy by Kakunyû himself. The underside of the lid is adorned with a seal and inscription by Hōunsai, the 15th generation head of the Urasenke tea school, with the poetic inscription "Ten-sen" adding further significance. Accompanying the bowl is a custom cloth and elegant wrapping, underscoring the attention to presentation.
