This Teabowl, created by Hogen Doshun between 1868 and 1912, exemplifies the Mingei movement, which emphasized the beauty of simple, functional objects. The bowl's rough, asymmetrical form and uneven glaze showcase the artist's hand and the natural qualities of the clay. This piece, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, captures the spirit of Mingei with its rustic charm and understated elegance.
