Description/
A white crackled glaze lightly covers the rust-red body of this conical tea bowl, calling to mind a rocky mountainside dusted with snow. At some point, the piece was broken and repaired with gold lacquer, a practice known as kintsugi. The fine gold lines display the process of destruction and repair, evoking themes of resilience and persistence.
