Hagi-yaki Kōyō’s Ido-type Matcha Bowl
This is an introduction to the Ido tea bowl by Kōyō Hayashi from Hagi-yaki.
The Ido tea bowl is originally a type of Korean tea bowl believed to have been created in the early Joseon period. Among the Korean tea bowls that came to Japan during the Muromachi period and afterward, it is regarded as one of the finest, often considered the king of Tang-style tea bowls.
The characteristics of the Ido tea bowl include its clay, which is coarse and rich in iron, resulting in a reddish-brown color. Due to the fast throwing technique used with this coarse clay, the surface often prominently displays rib-like throwing marks.
The foot of the bowl, known as the “take no se” foot, is designed for convenience when applying glaze, making it easier to hold the bowl. This foot is carved out, and the tool used to smooth the inside of the foot enters at an angle, creating a distinctive raised spiral pattern in the center of the foot.
The glazing is done in a way that covers the entire inside of the foot, resulting in very little exposure of the foot’s clay. This is one of the characteristics of the Ido tea bowl.
Overall, the bowl has a light, subtle color with a gentle reddish hue. The front features white glaze drips and flows, adding to its visual appeal.
Fine cracks and pinholes are visible throughout, showcasing the unique traits of Hagi-yaki. Slightly smaller than a large Ido tea bowl, it is suitable for use as a thin tea bowl. The ample white glaze gives it a bright impression.
This is a piece that can be enjoyed over time, experiencing the “Seven Transformations of Hagi” as it is used.

萩烧 红阳作 井户形 抹茶碗
这是关于林红阳制作的井户茶碗的介绍,属于萩烧陶器。
井户茶碗最初是朝鲜茶碗的一种,据信是在李朝的相对早期制作的,在室町时代之后传入日本的朝鲜茶碗中,位列第一,是唐物茶碗的王者。
井户茶碗的特点是,土壤中铁分含量较高,质地粗糙,呈赤褐色。由于使用粗糙的土壤在快速的旋转陶轮上成型,因此表面常常显现出明显的轮痕。
高台被称为竹节高台,因在施釉时方便抓握茶碗而形成。它是削出的高台,内部的刮刀斜切进入,导致高台内的中央部分呈漩涡状隆起。
釉料覆盖至高台的内侧,几乎没有直接可见的土壤部分,这是井户茶碗的一大特点。
整体颜色淡雅,带有红色调,呈现出柔和的质感。正面可见白釉的滴落与流动,这是其观赏点之一。
整体上有细微的裂纹和针孔,充分展现了萩烧的特色。与大井户茶碗相比,它的尺寸稍小,因此也适合用于薄茶。
白色釉料的部分较多,给人明亮的印象。随着使用,能够体验到“萩的七变化”,是一件能够长期使用的精品。
