This is an Oribe ware mizusashi (water pitcher). Oribe ware is a type of pottery favored by Furuta Oribe, a military commander and tea master during the Azuchi-Momoyama period, characterized by its green glaze. The mizusashi is used in the tea ceremony to add water to the kama (tea kettle) or to clean the chawan (tea bowl) and chasen (tea whisk). The mizusashi in the image is characterized by its unique shape and bold patterns. Oribe ware is mainly produced in the Mino region (present-day southern Gifu Prefecture), and its innovative designs overturned the conventional concepts of tea utensils. Furuta Oribe became Toyotomi Hideyoshi's tea master after the death of Sen no Rikyu and played an important role in the world of tea ceremony. The distinctive green color of Oribe ware is created by a glaze called Oribe glaze. There are various types of Oribe ware, including "Kuro-Oribe" (black Oribe) and "Kizeto" (yellow Seto). Many famous artists, such as Kitaoji Rosanjin, have been involved in Oribe ware. This mizusashi can be enjoyed not only for use in the tea ceremony but also as interior decoration.
