Description

A beautiful Kyo ware matcha bowl chawan adorned with a pair of traditional "Hina dolls" and dainty plum blossoms. 

Hina dolls are traditional ornamental dolls set for display at households for "Hinamatsuri" which is a seasonal festival observed on March 3 and is dedicated to the health and happiness of young girls. The dolls represent an emperor and empress of the imperial court. They are dressed in beautiful kimonos and in the hands of the emperor is a scepter called a "Shaku" and of the empress is a fan. Plum blossoms accompany Hina dolls when they are displayed on tables or shelves for Hinamatsuri celebrations as also seen on the design of the Matcha bowl.

The designs are hand painted by an artisan at Tanaka Toubou one by one which is a characteristic of Kyo ware. Painted in detail, the matcha bowl is a charming addition to any home, with its intricate design and colorful Hina dolls adorned with adorable smiles.

At the foot of "Fushimi Inari Taisha" Shrine, Tanaka Toubou has been open for 35 years. The artisans at Tanaka Toubou, Nobuo and Michiko Tanaka specialize in creating unique tea ceremony utensils and daily-use tablewares.

Nobuo principally creates glazed ware with a black "tenmoku" glaze that includes at least five percent iron. Meanwhile, Michiko's works capture the essence of each season along with gentle depictions of plants and animals which give an emotional connection to those who admire them.
