Kurokinsai Kiyomizu Chawan

Kurokinsai Kiyomizu Chawan

This Kiyomizu-yaki chawan (matcha bowl) has a classic, wan-nari (碗形) shape and is decorated in a style called kurokinsai (黒金彩 - black gold), with a matte black base with bronze-gold highlights across its textured surface. The foot of the bowl is cut into an octagon. This simple yet beautiful wan-nari shape of this chawan ideal for experienced matcha drinkers and initiates alike.

This bowl was made by Kurokawa Masaki (黒川正樹). Born in 1977, Kurokawa-san's inspirations come from the various styles he encountered trough his solo travels throughout Asia and Africa as well as the traditional Japanese aesthetic he employed during his time as a potter in Shigaraki. Since opening his own kiln in 2013, Kurokawa has fused these diverse influences to create his own unique styles.
