Tea Bowl
A conical stoneware tea bowl with a flared rim and a short unglazed foot. Its dark glaze pools near the base and breaks into rust-brown and olive streaks toward the lip, a hare's-fur effect typical of the glaze. Shown alone against a dark studio backdrop.
Look closer: A small pale mark or chip near the lower body, left of center, on the glaze surface.
