This chawan by Hashimoto Shiun carries the kiku-kiri motif — chrysanthemum and paulownia, two of the most enduring emblems in Japanese court and ceremonial culture. Against a cream ground patterned with kikko-mon (hexagonal honeycomb motif), overglaze enamels in turquoise, deep purple, and layered gold bring the design to a quiet but unmistakable presence.
Shiun works in the Kyo-yaki tradition, where refinement does not announce itself. The decoration is dense but never loud. Each viewing angle reveals a slightly different arrangement of motif and ground — a quality that rewards use over display alone.
