Owner’s Illustration

Owner’s Comment

This matcha bowl portrays Murasaki Shikibu alongside branches of red and white cherry blossoms, a design that conveys noble elegance.

The glossy surface and raised slip-trailing (itchin) technique give the piece remarkable depth and brilliance.

Slightly smaller in size, it rests comfortably in the hand and is easy to handle, making it both approachable and refined.

A work that embodies the vibrant and graceful style characteristic of Ichinyo Yamamoto, bringing a sense of seasonal beauty to spring tea gatherings.
