This Kyo-yaki matcha bowl, featuring a motif of five seasonal plants and the Seigaiha (blue ocean waves), was crafted by Yamaoka Zensho (born 1942), a master artisan in Kyoto.

The Gossekku refers to the five traditional seasonal festivals in Japan, celebrated to pray for a good harvest, good health, and prosperity while warding off evil spirits. Each of the five motifs symbolizes a different festival: pine for the New Year, peach blossoms for the Doll Festival (March 3), irises for Boys' Day (May 5), bamboo for Tanabata (July 7), and chrysanthemums for the Choyo Festival (September 9). These seasonal elements reflect the Japanese appreciation of nature’s generosity throughout the year.
