sabi Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 Good morning NMB, I recently acquired an Iga chawan and am hoping to find out who's hand it's by. Usually I can piece it together but the translation on Yahoo.JP came through very messy on this listing. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you! Quote
Curran Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 Left side: Shot in the dark as "Nobu Mitsu" ? Right side: Iga Cha Bowl Waiting for the official read from one of our pros. Quote
uwe Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 I think the left is the same as in the red stamp, so probably not Nobumitsu.....Right side might be “伊賀 茶器” as suggested by Curran. Quote
Curran Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 Uwe: 器 or 盤 ? Just slowly learning Japanese here, though I've accelerated it considerably the last year. Quote
SteveM Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 伊賀茶盌 偉央 Iga chawan Isamu I think maybe this guy https://utougama.wixsite.com/isamu-umehara/works 3 Quote
uwe Posted February 16, 2020 Report Posted February 16, 2020 Curran, Steve is right. I picked the wrong kanji, 器 (utsuwa). It, however, can also be read as bowl or vessel, but not in this case. Quote
sabi Posted February 17, 2020 Author Report Posted February 17, 2020 Thanks so much for all the help gentlemen! Steve, you're good... That's my guy, found an image of his incised signature and it's a match for my chawan. Can't thank you enough! Quote
