About the work
This exquisite Aka Shino tea bowl, crafted by renowned artist Kato Toyohisa, is a wonderful example of the traditional Shino glazing technique. Characterized by its rich red-orange tones contrasted with creamy whites, this piece evokes warmth and depth, typical of Aka Shino ware. The organic form, with its gentle ridges and natural indentations, enhances the rustic and wabi-sabi aesthetic, celebrating imperfection and the beauty of nature.
The tea bowl comes with a signed tomobako (wooden storage box), protective cloth, and leaflet, ensuring authenticity and adding collectible value to the piece.
