Oribe tea bowls are a striking style of Japanese pottery that emerged in the early 17th century, named after tea master Furuta Oribe. Known for their bold, asymmetrical forms and vivid green copper glaze, Oribe ware often features dynamic brushwork, abstract patterns, and iron-painted motifs on a white or cream background. Some pieces combine green glaze with unglazed or lightly glazed clay for contrast. Oribe bowls reflect a playful, avant-garde spirit, breaking from traditional symmetry to embrace spontaneity and artistic freedom. Celebrated in tea ceremonies, they embody both aesthetic innovation and the rustic elegance of the wabi-sabi philosophy.
