Hidasuki Bizen-yaki Chawan

This Bizen-yaki chawan (matcha bowl) is made from a light coloured clay that contrasts with the vibrant, scarlet red hidasuki stripes. The classic hantustsu-gata (半筒形 - half-cylindrical) shape adds to the rustic simplicity of the chawan while also making it very easy and intuitive to use and whisk in. 

This chawan was designed by 19th-generation potter Mori Toshiaki for the Genso line and was made by potters of the Mori family. The bowl comes in a kiribako (桐箱 - paulownia wooden box) signed by the artist.

Due to the organic and nature of hand-potting and straw-wrapping, each piece is unique.
