A wisteria tea bowl created as a "Kenzan utsushi", painted by Niei. / no.3315

Based on Ogata Kenzan’s original bowl, dynamic wisteria vines unfold across a softly green ground, their movement giving the composition a sense of rhythm and depth.
Leaves and trailing vines are rendered in rust-colored enamel, while clusters of wisteria blossoms emerge in blue and white, creating a vivid interplay of color and line.

The layered palette and flowing composition bring a quiet vitality to the bowl, allowing the elegance of Kenzan’s wisteria motif to resonate in a contemporary form.

About Utsushi
Utsushi is a long-standing practice in Japanese ceramics in which artists respectfully learn from and reinterpret the works of great masters.
Rather than simple reproduction, it is a creative dialogue between past and present, allowing tradition to be carried forward through a contemporary hand.
