This Beautiful Ido Chawan Is Made In The O-Ido Style, So It Has A Roughly Conical Shape And Very Tall Bamboo Knotted Feet . Like Most Of The Great Ido Tea Bowls, This Bowl Exhibits A Crawling Glaze Called “Kairagi” On And Around Its Foot. This Unique Glaze Texture Is Highly Praised By Ido Tea Bowl Collectors.
Once Damaged, This Tea Bowl Is Restored With Red Lacquer – A Softer Form Of Kintsugi, Suitable For Ido Tea Bowls. This Method Of Repair Is Well Known At Tsutsui Ido Chawan Owned By Toyotomi Hideyoshi
Kintsugi Is A Ceramic Repair Technique In Which Chips, Cracks, Broken Pieces Can Be Repaired With Lacquer , Lacquer May Be Mixed Or Dusted With Precious Metal Powder, Usually Gold Or Silver. Rather Than Hiding Damage, The Use Of Precious Metals Highlights Imperfections, Telling The Story Of The Object’S Wear And Repair Over Time And Tying In With The Buddhist Concept Of “Mindlessness” That Embraces Such Imperfections.
The Techniques And Philosophy Of Kintsugi Have Long Been Associated With Chanoyu , Or The Japanese Tea Ceremony, And Are Used In Many Famous Works. The Earliest Examples Were Often Restored With A Simple Black Or Red Lacquer That Was Less Ornate And More Wabi-Sabi Or Modest. Although The History Of Lacquerware Restoration Technology Dates Back To The Jomon Period, It Is Said To Have Been First Introduced To Teahouses By Furuta Oribe In The Late 16Th To Early 17Th Centuries.
Ido Chawan Is The Name Of A Certain Type Of Bowl And Similar Bowls In Korea During The Joseon Period. The Original 16Th-Century Korean Bowls Began As Humble Rice And Food Bowls For Farmers, But When They Reached Japan, Their Simple Gray Glaze And Subtly Uneven Shape Caught The Eye Of Tea Masters, Making Them Some Of The Most Fascinating One Of The Coveted Styles As Japanese Tastes Moved Away From The Perfection And Pomposity Of Chinese Celadon And Tenmoku Bowls Toward A More Earthy And Austere Aesthetic Is The Wabi.
Original Korean Ido Tea Bowls Can Be Roughly Divided Into Three Main Part Shapes: O-Ido/O-Ido , Ko-Ido/Ko-Ido , And Ao-Ido . The O-Ido Bowl, Like The Legendary Kizaemon Ido, Is Large, Has A Tall Bamboo Node-Shaped Foot , Has A Warm Beige Biwa/Loquat Color Glaze, And Has A Slightly Curved But Roughly Conical Wall. The Ko-Ido Bowl Is Similar, But Smaller And Has Less Pronounced Feet. Aoto Bowls Also Have Shorter Feet And Have Straighter Conical Walls Without The Gentle Curves Seen In Aoto Bowls. The “Blue” In Their Name May Come From The Cooler Glaze Color That Many Bowls Have.
