Fabulous Japanese bowl

Marked base Oribe-yaki

Oribe-yaki) is a style of Japanese pottery that first appeared in the sixteenth century. It is a type of Japanese stoneware recognized by its freely-applied glaze as well as its dramatic visual departure from the more somber, monochrome shapes and vessels common in Raku ware of the time.[1] The ceramics were often asymmetrical, embracing the eccentricity of randomized shapes.[2] Deformed shapes were not at all uncommon. These shapes were achieved through the implementation of moulding as a technique, as opposed to working on a potter’s wheel.[3] Sometimes, bowls were so deformed that they became difficult to use – whisking tea could even become a difficult task.[4]
