This listing is for a Kyo-ware nodate-sized chawan made around 20 years ago.  It is wheel-thrown and decorated with clematis blooms over light coloured glaze.  The clematis flowers were created using stencils and are vibrant in colour.  Please note that nodate chawan are smaller than regular sized tea bowls, and are used for outdoor tea ceremonies. The signature of the kiln can be found on the bottom, and it comes with a paper storage box. *PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CHASEN TEA WHISK IS NOT INCLUDED.

Kyo-ware originated in the 17th century in Kyoto and features overglaze enamel pigments on a porcelain base. The porcelain base acts as white canvas, allowing for beautiful and superior quality designs to be painted. Kyo-ware artisans traditionally produced chawan and utensils for the tea ceremony, however contemporary potters specialize in tableware, tea ceremony items, incense holders, and okimono. Kyo-ware was designated as a traditional craft in 1977.
