Fujisan

The Fujisan tea bowl, displayed at the Sunritz Hattori Museum of Arts, features white porcelain patterns against a dark background.

Created around 1700 by master craftsman Honami Koetsu, this tea bowl represents the traditional techniques of Raku pottery manufacturing.

The ceramic piece incorporates Mount Fuji motifs and demonstrates the connection between Japanese tea ceremonies and natural elements.

The museum maintains specific temperature and humidity levels to preserve the delicate glazing and prevent deterioration of the centuries-old artifact.

The bowl exhibits a rare combination of Raku firing methods and precise brushwork techniques that distinguish it from other tea ceremony vessels.
