This piece is a masterpiece molded on a pottery wheel by Manji Inoue, who is also a Living National Treasure. This piece is made using the highest quality raw materials (Amakusa pottery stone), has a moist, pure white skin, is engraved with a peony pattern, and is finished with a soft green glaze. Since it is a tea bowl, the diameter of the rim is wider than that of a coffee bowl, allowing you to enjoy the color and aroma of the black tea even more (the wider diameter makes it easier for heat to escape). In addition, the base is raised to match the diameter of the mouth rim, giving the shape a sense of beauty and elegance. The peony pattern on the tea bowl is drawn on both the front and back. The capacity is about 120ml.
