This exquisite Japanese chawan (tea bowl) is adorned with a detailed and colorful hand-painted wisteria motif, symbolizing elegance and grace. The soft contours and natural clay texture are beautifully balanced by the vibrant overglaze painting, making this piece both functional and decorative.
The bowl comes with its original tomobako (signed wooden box), marked with the character for "藤" (fuji, meaning wisteria), likely indicating the name or theme of the piece. The artist’s signature and seal are also inscribed on the box.
