This Kawamoto Goro tea bowl features a finely crafted rim, with a soft hay-yellow ash glaze that forms subtle, organic patterns across its surface. A distinct kiln firing spot within the glaze expresses the "wabi" and serenity of the tea ceremony. It evokes a scrolling, painted design reminiscent of a foggy evening, with the harvest moon rising over a serene mountain-scape. The bowl’s form is both intentional and balanced, forming a sense of harmony. Kawamoto Goro's skilled craftsmanship shines through in this tea bowl which exudes naturalism.
