{"product_id":"kutsu-gata-kuro-oribe-chawan","title":"Kutsu-gata Kuro-Oribe Chawan","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis kutsu-gata Kuro-Oribe chawan was designed and produced as a collaboration between Tezumi and Hiroshige Katō of Kasen Kiln. Inspired by the shape and style of masterpiece Waraya chawan, each bowl was hand-built (手びねり - tebineri) and hand-carved (刳り抜き - kurinuki) into a delightfully playful kutsu-gata shape and hand-painted with an iron underglaze design which combines geometric patterns with naturalistic scrollwork. After glazing and firing, each bowl was soaked for two days in a solution called tochishibu (栃渋) which is made from horse chestnut caps. The result is a staining effect which softens the white of the glaze, emphasizes the crazing and darkens the exposed clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that due to the organic nature of hand-carving, glazing, and painting, there are variations between pieces, with each bowl being unique in shape and design. Five pieces are pictured above to display these natural variations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katō Hiroshige (Kasen Kiln)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45548319703084,"sku":"US-M391","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/9174\/7116\/files\/Tezumi-_DSC0159.jpg?v=1779029484","url":"https:\/\/rak1pm-kn.myshopify.com\/products\/kutsu-gata-kuro-oribe-chawan","provider":"NEBULAPRIMEX ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
