Its hallmark is a luminous white porcelain body — thin-walled, translucent — shaped in a tradition that absorbed both Korean and Chinese influences yet speaks a distinctly Japanese dialect. Housen Kiln continues this lineage, working with restraint and precision. The leaf motif on this bowl — rendered with a single brushstroke per form — embodies the Japanese aesthetic of *kanso* (簡素), the beauty of reduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 DEEPER NOTES 】\u003cbr\u003eThe celadon wash on the interior takes on depth when warm matcha fills the bowl. The unglazed foot ring — rough, honest, grounded — anchors the vessel in earth even as the decorated exterior floats toward poetry. This is a bowl that asks you to slow down.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【 日本語説明 】\u003cbr\u003e出石焼抹茶碗。豊泉窯作。淡青白の磁肌に墨調の青灰色で葉文を描く。一枚一枚、筆の勢いが残る。兵庫・出石の磁器伝統窯、豊泉窯による作品。共箱付き。口径13cm、高さ7cm。経年の状態良好。\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":61649469145458,"sku":"260307_a_2379","price":483.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/5680\/3698\/files\/m74356838894_1.jpg?v=1773129122","url":"https:\/\/checkout.themodernzenarchive.com\/products\/izushi-porcelain-matcha-bowl-by-housen-kiln-blue-grey-leaf-motif-signed-wood-box","provider":"The Modern Zen Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
