Wabi Sabi Chawan Matcha cone 14 茶碗 Anagama Wood Salt Shino on Stoneware by contemporary artist Tony Ferguson

Fired in the Joseph Sand Anagama, this wabi sabi winter chawan is a fusion of the elements fired to 2500 degrees fahrenheit.

Pyro-plastic iron saturates
Silver crystals, windows
commingling with ash and salt
iridescence, carbon trapped pepper
moves across an asymmetrical landscape
pulled by gravitas
to a single drop

A full range of translucent, semi-opaque, and opaque surfaces encircle this asymmetrical yet balanced and vitrified chawan perfect for your matcha or as a display piece.

Sturdy and strong, a moderate foot, this chawan fits nicely in the hand and on the lip.
