Tenmoku Tea Bowl with Hare’s-Fur Glaze

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a ceramic tea bowl with a dark brown hare's-fur glaze. The bowl is wide and short, with a rounded body that tapers slightly towards the top. The body of the bowl is dark brown with a hare's-fur glaze effect that resembles the texture of animal fur. The glaze features streaks of lighter and darker brown, giving it a mottled appearance. The interior of the bowl is a lighter brown color and reflects light. The bowl has a small foot ring at the base. The background is a plain gray color, with a subtle shadow cast by the bowl.
