Chawan in raku

A chawan is the bowl used in the tea ceremony. This one in particular was fired using an antique japanese technique called raku. In this technique the fire gives the pieces a rustic, aged, imperfect and random appearance. The pleasant sensation of drinking a warm tea is heightened when you are using a unique piece.
