Nezumi Shino Chawan

Nezumi Shino Chawan with typical white and red stripes, signature and mark of the potter, XX Century. The red stripes, created from iron oxide, emerge beneath the glaze in warm, earthy tones ranging from brick red to russet. These brushwork patterns contrast against the muted mouse gray (nezumi) glaze, often crackled and uneven in texture. The bowl’s form is slightly irregular, emphasizing the hand crafted nature of the piece.
