This black cylindrical Raku-yaki matcha bowl, featuring a winter night moon motif, was crafted by Keiraku Ito at the Katsura kiln in Kyoto.
Raku ceramics are distinguished by the tezukune hand-molding technique and low-temperature firing between 750°C and 1,200°C in a small kiln. The tezukune method involves shaping the clay entirely by hand, without a potter’s wheel, and refining the form by scraping it with a spatula. The marks left by this process give each Raku piece its distinctive texture and character, making every bowl truly unique.
