Vtg Japanese Ceramic Green Tea Bowl

This is a vintage Japanese ceramic green tea bowl or matcha chawan.  A brown-toned glaze covers the entire surface, including the foot. A soft, subtle sheen outside has wheel-throwing rings, white, textured speckles, and a slightly green natural glaze.  The inside has different brown tones from the outside.  It has a signature around the foot.
Green tea bowls are traditionally used to prepare and drink green tea during tea ceremonies, but can be used in many scenes of modern everyday life.
