Product description
This Oribe chawan is a statement. In a ceramic world often dominated by sobriety and monochrome, Oribe has always managed to take the opposite approach with an almost insolent freedom. A creamy white base crossed by vivid emerald green drips, grey-black blocks of color applied like brushstrokes, touches of rust brown piercing through here and there: this bowl looks as much like an abstract painting as it does a ceremonial object.
The interior reveals a geometric pattern of chevrons and black and green stripes of troubling modernity, as if a contemporary artist had decided to play with the codes of a four-century-old tradition. And yet, everything here is profoundly Japanese: the hand-faceted shape, the deliberate irregularity of the rim, the partially glazed foot.
This bowl is not meant to be contemplated from afar. It is held in the hands, turned, and discovered from every angle. Only one piece available, for those who dare to embrace beauty that is slightly unsettling.
