The defining characteristic of Mishima tea bowls lies in their use of the zōgan (inlay) technique. This involves carving patterns onto the surface of the bowl and filling the grooves with white clay. This process brings out intricate designs, such as geometric patterns, floral motifs, and delicate linework, creating a striking visual effect.
Additionally, the bowls are coated with a translucent glaze, giving them a soft and refined appearance. The contrast between the white inlay patterns and the gentle sheen of the glaze enhances their elegance and charm.

This bowl is smaller size and elegant impression, comfortable in hands.
Shape is calm, flower pattern inside and a bird is in the center. Contrast with tasteful red soil is beautiul.
