Product description
This chawan is arguably the most narrative piece in the entire collection. Against its deep black lacquer background, a composition of overlapping fans unveils a dreamlike Japan: a red wooden bridge spanning a river, pine trees tormented by the wind, stylized cloud swirls, rhythmically curved waves, and shivering willows and bamboos. Each fan is a complete painting, framed in gold, coexisting with the others without ever repeating them.
The fan, sensu or uchiwa, is one of the most culturally significant symbols in Japan. It represents prosperity unfolding like an open fan, the breath of life, and the grace of movement. Choosing it as the central motif for a tea bowl transforms every ceremony into an act of aspiration and elegance.
The quality of this bowl's execution is exceptional: the gold outlines are of extreme finesse, the precision of the miniature scenes within each fan is remarkable, and the balance of the composition against the black background allows every color to stand out with maximum intensity. Only one piece available, a work that belongs as much in a museum as it does on the tea table.
