This beautiful chawan features the distinctive soft grey glaze that gives this style its name – “nezumi” meaning “mouse” in Japanese. The delicate texture of this glaze differs from the rougher touch the other styles of Shinoyaki often produce. The undulating rim and off-even, wabi-sabi shape provides a unique character to the vessel.

One of the best known ceramic styles from the Mino region, shinoyaki chawan are still prized by tea masters today. 

This one of a kind piece comes in a custom wooden box signed by the artist.
