Japanese Katakuchi Bowl — Calligraphy & Woven Handle
A distinctive Japanese ceramic pouring bowl from Tsubokuro Pottery Studio, combining expressive blue calligraphy with a beautifully wrapped handle.
The softly rounded vessel features a small pouring spout, an off-white ceramic body, and freely brushed indigo-blue characters across its surface.
An arched woven handle adds warmth and texture, creating a striking contrast with the glazed ceramic.
Rooted in the spirit of Japanese folk craft, the piece brings together everyday function and sculptural expression.
Beautiful displayed on an open shelf or wooden table, it can be appreciated as a decorative object as well as a traditional Japanese pouring vessel.
