Yohen Tenmoku

Yohen Tenmoku tea bowl（曜変天目茶碗） was made during the Southern Song Dynasty (12th to 13th centuries). 
Currently, there are only three bowls in Japan, all of which are designated as national treasures.
Many potters have tried to recreate Yohen Tenmoku. 
Takemi Seto（瀬戸　毅己） is one of the potters trying to recreate Yohen Tenmoku.
