Thank you, and after reading your comment , i slightly remember reading or hearing something like the 5 hill rim. At this moment i don't have time to recheck the following, but it might be from this demonstration that i do recall https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIdKtf90rN0hobin wrote:Beautiful chawan! I like the colour, not so common for ohiyaki...the typical ameyu glaze is there though, in the small vertical stripe and in the foot! also the shape is one of my favourite, with a 5 hill- edge, (I've read somewhere that the hills represent the 5 kyoto zen temples)
Re: Bizen, shino & other teaware appreciation anyone?

This would be more inline with the meaning of the 5 raised edges of the raku chawan. Also, the representation of mountains carved or glazed into the exterior would fit this, too. But, the more common meaning I've read was it represented Mt. Fuji.

interesting video. one can see how the art of tebineri is strongly linked with chanoyu. the bowl is designed to second each gesture of the tea master, it's made to be felt in the handsFuut wrote:Thank you, and after reading your comment , i slightly remember reading or hearing something like the 5 hill rim.

another traditional glaze for ohi is green:Tead Off wrote:When I was in the Ohi Museum, I was surprised to see the amount of work that was not done with the common Ame glaze. There's a lot of varied work and much more than just bowls that we are used to seeing

yes, but I pre-warm the bowl to avoid any thermal shock. if the bowl needs a deeper cleaning I use a soft toothbrushFuut wrote:Hey nice!
