Vintage Japanese Hand-Painted Tea Bowls - Set of Five with Signed Tomobako
Set of five vintage Japanese porcelain tea bowls featuring hand-painted floral motifs in red, green, and yellow overglaze enamels. Each bowl displays traditional Japanese form and decoration, with fine brushwork and a softly toned glaze typical of mid-20th-century studio pottery.
The bases bear hand-written Japanese character marks, and the set is accompanied by its original wooden storage box (tomobako) with brushed calligraphy, indicating kiln or artist attribution. This presentation is customary for quality Japanese tea wares and suggests the set was produced for domestic use rather than export.
