Owner’s Comment
Cherry blossoms, carefully painted down to the trunk and leaves, stand out beautifully against the expressive surface of the ash glaze.
The contrast between the soft, nuanced ash glaze and the gold decoration covering the entire interior gives the piece a striking presence.
A matcha bowl with a sense of occasion, suitable not only for spring tea gatherings but also for special moments of tea.
