"Kinsai" matcha chawan by Yamada Toyoshi

 

A gorgeous chawan in rich shades of gold and green. It is almost impossible to do justice to this piece in a photograph. It really has to be seen to be fully appreciated! Sheets of gold leaf have been applied to the body, leaving overlapping patterns in a very precise process. It is a craft which requires great dexterity and care. The clever use of green glaze shows a strong sense of artistry and results in a very opulent finish.

Kutani craftsman Yamada Toyoshi has won numerous awards and has exhibited at many prestigious exhibitions in Japan.

Hand-crafted in Ishikawa-pref, Japan by Kutani Artist, Yamada Toyoshi.
