Red Raku ware, distinguished by its vibrant red glaze, is a celebrated type of Japanese pottery that originated in the late 16th century. This form of ceramic art is closely associated with the tea ceremony, and its unique aesthetic comes from the hand-shaped clay that undergoes a low-temperature firing process, creating a distinctively textured and colored finish. The contrast between the intense red glaze and the unglazed portions highlights the beauty and simplicity inherent in Raku ware, making each piece uniquely appealing.
This plate set has a wonderful texture and intriguing surface where the glaze beads and forms on the surface like rice grains.
