A beautiful vintage Japanese studio pottery tea bowl by Kato, featuring a distinctive Hidaki-effect glaze and traditional Seiji ware form.
 
The bowl has a beautifully understated, tactile quality, with subtle variations in the glaze giving the surface depth and character. The simple rounded form is complemented by the natural irregularities of handmade Japanese ceramics.
 
The bowl is signed to the base and comes complete with its original presentation box, adding further interest and making this a particularly appealing piece for collectors of Japanese pottery.
