Matcha Bowl (Chawan) "Unkai" Sea of Clouds - Shinemon Kiln, Arita Ware

Sale price¥631,000

A work expressing a sacred other world, the borderland with nature. A realm of woods covered in cloud. The harmony of heaven and earth.

Hand-Pinched, Unusually for the Kiln
Among the works of Shinemon Kiln this is an unusual hand-pinched piece, and from the solid, weighty air of the work one feels the power of nature’s spirit.

Mist, and a Full Moon Within
The work uses a matt technique to express the mist of a sea of clouds. In the well of the bowl there is also a bold chadamari, the hollow where the tea gathers, which gives a sense of the mystery of a full moon.

The Summation of His Bowls
A work that is something like the summation of Shinemon’s tea bowls. It will surely heal the spirit of those who use it, and wrap them warmly. Using it, you can come to a settled feeling, as though becoming one with the earth — a masterwork indeed.
