A flat-form matcha tea bowl hand-crafted and fired in a wood-fired kiln by master potter Banggok Seo Dong-gyu. The deep, subdued green glaze characteristic of this piece naturally formed during the wood-firing process using elm wood ash as the glaze material, making it a unique one-of-a-kind ceramic artwork with no identical counterpart. The shallow foot and generous rim are ideally shaped for whisking matcha, and the weight and earthen texture in hand deepen the aesthetic appreciation of the tea ceremony. The fire marks and ash-glaze effects distinctive to wood-kiln firing naturally remain on the surface, giving each piece its own unique character. As a handmade work by a master potter, there may be individual variations in size, color tone, and glaze surface condition; these are not defects but inherent characteristics of wood-fired ceramic ware. Includes: 1 Tea Bowl Artist: Master Potter Banggok Seo Dong-gyu Production Method: Wood-Fired Kiln Glaze: Elm Wood Ash Green Glaze
