Matcha bowl, dark with turquoise inner glaze, nodate
Product information "Matcha bowl, dark with turquoise inner glaze, nodate"
Dark nodate matcha bowl (chawan) with petrol colored glaze on the inside.
The tapered shape with the egg indentation on the top rim is also called "Tenmoku-Gata", after the area of Tien Mu in ancient China. Translated, this means something like "heavenly eye".
The wide opening and rather small size are also characteristic of summer bowls (compared to rather thick-walled, tall winter bowls, in which the tea cools down more slowly).
Such summer bowls (usually without any other seasonal features or decoration) are popularly used for the so-called nodate tea ceremony, which is held outdoors.
