It features a clean white crackle glaze, with a prominent hand-painted green pine tree spreading across the surface. The delicate, ruffled glaze texture contrasts gently with the elegant brushwork, giving the piece both depth and warmth.

With its slightly coarse surface and balanced weight, this chawan feels secure in hand and carries a timeless wabi-sabi charm. An ideal bowl for those who appreciate traditional Japanese aesthetics with a natural, serene presence.
