Type...Pottery...Tea Bowl...Tsuboya-yaki This is a Tsuboya-yaki fish-motif tea bowl by Jiro Kinjo, the first Living National Treasure of Okinawa. It is a very popular and rare item, with two fish carved on the inside. The carving is truly powerful, and the fish motif is clearly depicted, a work from his prime. The firing is bright and crisp, which is very pleasing. The glaze is so lustrous that it seems to have moisture, and it is in an exceptionally wonderful condition. The outer brushstrokes also display a variety of scenery. This is a wonderful item to hold, and I think it will make tea ceremonies enjoyable. I have handled many works by Jiro Kinjo, and I have come to understand the quality of his work. This item is undoubtedly a masterpiece! Size: Height approx. 7 cm, Maximum width approx. 13 cm. Please allow for some error. I think this price is cheap, including shipping! First come, first served! Unused (there are no traces of use). The price is set at the lowest possible point. I cannot accept price negotiations, so please be satisfied with the images and purchase immediately. Thank you very much. *Discounts are available for bulk purchase requests.
