BOWL, Earthenware（fragment）, Jomon Period（10000–300BCE）

This fragment of Jomon earthenware features incised comb-pattern decorations on the interior of the bowl. Although produced in large quantities as utilitarian ware for daily life, it exudes a rugged yet generous form that captures the intrinsic allure of the material itself. When held, it evokes a sense of warmth from the earth, as if awakening ancient memories, and it possesses a striking presence as an object of art. Place it gently on a flower stand or shelf, and enjoy a moment that resonates with the passage of time.
