~Enjoy the true essence of pottery's form, shape, and color~
The work bears the carved inscription "Handeishi" (kaō) on the bottom side.

Even in its plump and beautiful form, it reflects Handeishi's characteristic free spirit, unbound by anything. The pale greenish glaze has been fired exceptionally well, revealing a subtle bluish hue in various places that is highly prized. This creates a mesmerizing kiln alteration (yōhen) landscape. The splendid coloring further highlights the rustic texture of the clay and the excellent scenic qualities, making it a masterpiece among Handeishi's Karatsu tea bowls. This piece achieves a level of finish that transcends tradition, captivating people with its unique aesthetic realm and the heartwarming beauty and refined charm created by the interplay of clay and glaze, making it a truly representative work of Handeishi.
The inscription "Chiyo no Kotobuki" (Longevity of a Thousand Generations), found on the most complete works, conveys its joyful quality. This is an exceptionally rare and treasured piece, marked with the carved inscription "Handeishi" (kaō) on the bottom, a mark reserved only for special works that Handeishi himself particularly cherished among his entire oeuvre, meaningfully illuminating the excellent quality of its finish.
