Medium-sized, high-sided, oval-shaped oribe bowl by Tetsuya Kowari.

Oribe is highly prized in Japanese culture ... and this piece is no exception! Definitely for the collectors.

This high-sided bowl has been deformed into a pleasing oval shape, then finished in Kowari's signature, wood fired oribe style, with washes of brown and green, culminating in a dark green pool in the centre.

We can feel water trickling down ancient stones and earth into a beautiful pool of cooling green.

Tetsuya Kowari produces extraordinary vessels that seem almost too sculptural to use but are in fact are all highly functional. These are pieces designed for daily use, or simply for daily contemplation of their incredible aesthetic.

Kowari creates his pieces in a wood fired anagama kiln in Fujinomiya, Shizuoka Prefecture, and the DEA Store is the official stockist of Tetsuya Kowari work in Australia.
