Japanese Bizen Ware Tea Cup Guinomi

Japanese Bizen ware yunomi (tea cup), hand-thrown and wood-fired, showing natural kiln effects with areas of dark grey, reddish clay, and ash variation typical of Bizen pottery.

The form is simple and cylindrical with slight variation in the wall and rim, reflecting hand construction. Surface markings and color shifts come from the firing process, not applied glaze.

In good condition with no cracks or chips observed. Minor irregularities and surface variation are consistent with traditional wood-fired ceramics.

A solid, functional piece suitable for daily tea use.
