About the work
A visually compelling yunomi (tea cup) by Kato Toyohisa, this piece exemplifies the expressive power of Nezumi Shino ware. The cup features a dynamic interplay between the gray feldspar glaze and iron underglaze brushwork, contrasted by rich reddish-orange flashes from the kiln. The thick, crackled glaze and undulating surface emphasize the hand-formed character of the vessel, making it a tactile joy to use and admire.
This yunomi comes complete with its original tomobako (signed wooden box), cloth, and exhibition leaflet.
