Description

Vintage Japanese Chawan Tea Bowl (SKU 25D-234-12)

Subtle white-glazed chawan with original signed tomobako presentation box

This elegant vintage Japanese tea bowl is finished in a soft, misty white glaze with pale celadon undertones, evoking the quiet atmosphere of a winter morning. The gently flared form sits on an unglazed foot, where the fine-grained clay and impressed potter’s mark are clearly visible, emphasizing its hand-thrown character.

Accompanied by its original kiri-wood tomobako, brush-inscribed and sealed by the artist, this chawan is ideal for display or for use in chanoyu. The restrained, almost Scandinavian minimalism of the glaze makes it a versatile piece that harmonizes beautifully with both traditional Japanese interiors and modern wabi-sabi inspired spaces.

A refined choice for collectors of Japanese pottery and for anyone seeking an authentic chawan with quiet, contemplative beauty.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
