The silver-white droplets form during firing when iron-rich bubbles rise to the glaze surface, cool, and crystallize. Uniformity across the full surface of a bowl is exceptional. Oketani Teiichi, working in Kyoto and recognized under the city's traditional craft designation, is a specialist in this form. Here, the oil spots scatter with a density and evenness that marks a practiced hand and a controlled kiln.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ground is deep blue-black — the characteristic tenmoku darkness that makes the silver spots read as light scattered across still water. A silver rim band (fukurin) closes the rim with precision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTenmoku was brought to Japan by Zen monks returning from Song Dynasty China. It has been made and studied in Kyoto ever since. This bowl stands in that continuity without apology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 13 cm diameter × 7 cm height.\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good.
