A unique vintage chawan from the workshop of master Takada Shozaburo. A very old piece, difficult to determine its exact age.

It is one of the oldest and most respected ceramic traditions in Japan, along with Bizen, Shigaraki, Seto, Tanba, and Echizen - the so-called "Rokkoyō" (六古窯, "six ancient kilns").
