The fence motif grounds the abundant blooms in a structured garden scene — the classic court autumn composition. Gold detailing defines the petal contours; the lower register dissolves into a warm ochre wash that gives the composition its horizon. The interior is a clean warm cream. The bowl's silhouette is slightly squared, asserting presence without aggression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 Basic Details 】\u003cbr\u003e• Type: Chawan (matcha tea bowl)\u003cbr\u003e• Style: Kyoyaki (Kyoto ware), iro-e\u003cbr\u003e• Artist: Minamiguchi Kansui (南口閑粋)\u003cbr\u003e• Motif: Chrysanthemum and fence (籬菊文)\u003cbr\u003e• Size: Diameter approx. 12.2 × 11.1 cm \/ Height approx. 7.7 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Condition: Excellent\u003cbr\u003e• Provenance: Full set — tomobako, matching cloth (tomobukuro), bookmark card (tomoshiori), outer decorative box (keshoubako)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 Cultural Insight 】\u003cbr\u003eThe chrysanthemum-and-fence (rinkiku or magaki-giku) motif draws from Heian-period court poetry and the tradition of Ogura Hyakunin Isshu. The fence, a humble garden boundary, becomes a frame for the aristocratic chrysanthemum — autumn's symbolic flower of longevity and imperial authority. In tea, this motif speaks to the formality of mid-autumn gatherings and the respectful attention given to seasonal markers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 Deep Dive 】\u003cbr\u003eMinamiguchi Kansui's work in the Kyoyaki tradition reflects the continued vitality of Kyoto's ceramic culture in the latter 20th century. The multi-firing process required to achieve this depth of color — crimson and teal over gold over cream — represents considerable technical discipline. The full preservation of all original box materials (tomobako, tomobukuro, tomoshiori, keshoubako) is uncommon and speaks to the care with which this piece has been held.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 日本語説明 】\u003cbr\u003e南口閑粋作の色絵籬菊茶碗（京焼）です。金彩の籬を背景に、深紅・紫・白・緑青の菊が豊かに描かれています。器形は端正で、共箱・共布・共栞・外化粧箱のフルセットで保存状態が良好です。\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":61633046086002,"sku":"260304_a_2303","price":943.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/5680\/3698\/files\/m20995541730_1.jpg?v=1772637693","url":"https:\/\/checkout.themodernzenarchive.com\/products\/iro-e-chrysanthemum-fence-chawan-by-minamiguchi-kansui-kyoyaki-full-set","provider":"The Modern Zen Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
