Hakeme hira-chawan. Artist work. The wide, open form invites the eye inward before the hand has lifted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a hira-chawan, the shallow ceremonial bowl used in summer tea practice, where surface and space hold equal weight. The brushstroke glaze — hakeme — is among the oldest mark-making traditions in Japanese ceramics, each stroke a record of the maker's speed, pressure, intention. No two are the same.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[ ITEM DETAILS ]\u003cbr\u003e• Form: Hira-chawan (flat tea bowl)\u003cbr\u003e• Glaze: Hakeme (white brushstroke over pink-mauve clay)\u003cbr\u003e• Condition: No chips or cracks\u003cbr\u003e• Box: Paper presentation box inscribed 刷毛目 茶碗\u003cbr\u003e• Signed artist work\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[ CULTURAL CONTEXT ]\u003cbr\u003eHakeme arrived in Japan from Korean ceramic tradition, carried by the aesthetic attention of tea masters who saw in its rough vitality an antidote to excessive refinement. The flat chawan — hira-chawan — became the vessel of high summer, its wide mouth releasing steam and allowing the tea's surface to cool. To hold one is to participate in a practice measured in centuries, not trends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[ FOR THE COLLECTOR ]\u003cbr\u003eArtist-made hakeme hira-chawan occupy a distinct category: the brushstroke is not decoration applied after form, but evidence of the making itself. The pink clay body visible between strokes is not a flaw — it is the conversation between ground and gesture that defines the piece. This bowl carries that dialogue intact.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【日本語説明】\u003cbr\u003e刷毛目平茶碗、作家物。ピンク・モーヴの素地に白い刷毛目が力強く走る、動きのある一碗です。ヒビやカケなし、紙箱付属。夏の茶事に相応しい、格調ある道具です。\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🔹 [ SHIPPING \u0026amp; PACKAGING ]\u003cbr\u003e• Dispatch: Within 1-6 business days\u003cbr\u003e• Carrier: Japan Post EMS \/ UPS (with tracking)\u003cbr\u003e• Packaging: Carefully wrapped with protective materials","brand":"The Modern Zen Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61661581279602,"sku":"260316_a_2438","price":509.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/5680\/3698\/files\/m42985869369_1.jpg?v=1773638374","url":"https:\/\/checkout.themodernzenarchive.com\/products\/hakeme-hira-chawan-japanese-flat-tea-bowl-artist-work-matcha-bowl-tea-ceremony","provider":"The Modern Zen Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
