Setoyaki Oribe Maccha Bowl (Aichi Prefecture, Setoyaki)
Oribe ware
is a type of Japanese pottery most identifiable for its use of green copper glaze
and bold painted design. It was the first use of colored stoneware glaze by Japanese
potters.
As one of the Mino styles originating in the late 16th century it
takes its name from the tea master Furuta Oribe (1544-1615).
The clay body
has a high-iron content and is formed by hand, on a potter’s wheel or by
drape molding. The surface of Oribe is painted with lively designs, which may
be natural effects, geometric patterns, or a combination of the two. For the brilliant
green color, wares are fired in oxidation at 1220 degrees Celsius.
