Utsutsugawa Confectionery Bowl with Brush Decoration

Characterised by its russet colour, high iron content, and intricate brush strokes, Utsutsugawa ware remains a revered ceramic art form in Nagasaki Prefecture.

This delightful and rare confectionery bowl is decorated with a fine brush pattern. The deep, rich chocolate colour of the clay is accentuated as the glaze catches the light. The undulating rim highlights the fine facture of this kiln's work.
