🔹 [ CULTURAL & ARTISTIC INSIGHT ]
Yuteki, or "oil-spot" glaze, represents one of the most technically demanding achievements in ceramic history. Originating in Song Dynasty China and perfected by Japanese artisans, this technique produces countless silvery spots that appear to float across the glossy black surface like stars scattered across a night sky.
The effect occurs when iron oxide in the glaze crystallizes during cooling, creating metallic pools that catch and reflect light. Each bowl emerges from the kiln as a unique universe, its pattern determined by the subtle alchemy of fire, timing, and atmosphere.
*"Like moonlight scattered on still water, each spot holds the memory of flame transformed into permanence."*

🔹 [ DEEP-DIVE COMMENTARY ]
**The Tenmoku Legacy**: Tenmoku bowls trace their lineage to Jian ware of China's Fujian province, where Buddhist monks brought them to Japan in the 12th century. Japanese tea masters elevated these vessels to objects of profound aesthetic appreciation.
**Technical Achievement**: Creating yuteki requires precise kiln temperature control around 1300°C and specific atmospheric conditions. The silvery spots form only within a narrow firing window, making successful pieces relatively rare.
**Collector Significance**: Oil-spot bowls remain highly prized for their ability to transform during use—the spots seem to dance and shift as matcha is whisked within, creating an ever-changing visual meditation.
**Contemporary Practice**: Modern Japanese potters continue this ancient tradition, combining historical techniques with personal artistic expression. This bowl exemplifies that living continuity.

【基本情報】
• 作家：信夫
• 技法：油滴天目釉
• 時代：現代（昭和～平成）
• 産地：日本
• 寸法：径約11.8cm、高さ約7.4cm
• 付属：紙箱
• 状態：良好
【解説】
油滴天目は、中国宋代の建窯に起源を持つ最も技術的に困難な釉薬技法の一つです。漆黒の釉面に銀色の斑点が無数に浮かび上がる様は、まさに夜空に散りばめられた星々のよう。
鉄分を含む釉薬が冷却過程で結晶化することで生まれるこの現象は、焼成温度と雰囲気の微妙な制御によってのみ実現されます。抹茶を点てる際、茶筅の動きに合わせて油滴が揺らめき、使う度に異なる表情を見せてくれます。
