Its gentle wide silhouette creates a calm and inviting presence in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovered in a delicate pale celadon-grey glaze with soft blush-pink tones pooling toward the center, the surface reveals the subtle crackled texture (kannyū) characteristic of Hagi ware. These fine glaze lines gradually deepen with use as tea permeates the ceramic, a beloved phenomenon known as the “Seven Transformations of Hagi” (萩の七化け), where the vessel slowly changes and matures over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe understated coloration and soft transitions between grey, ivory, and pale rose beautifully express the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi — appreciating imperfection, transience, and natural beauty. The exposed foot and gently uneven glaze further enhance its handcrafted warmth and organic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced under the name Tenpōzan (天鵬山), this piece reflects the enduring traditions of Hagi pottery from Yamaguchi Prefecture, one of Japan’s most esteemed tea ceramic traditions since the early 17th century. Hagi ware has long been favored by tea masters for its softness, humility, and intimate tactile quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 15 x 15 x 6cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57326978728267,"sku":"TC102","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_0f298e15-e030-4d33-98ba-94f7b532154c.jpg?v=1778922345","url":"https:\/\/fr.maisonkyo.be\/products\/tc102-hagi-yaki-hirachawan-match-bowl-%e8%90%a9%e7%84%bc","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
