A disciple of the legendary tea master Sen no Rikyū (千利休), Oribe developed his own distinctive interpretation of the tea ceremony, introducing bold artistic expressions that challenged conventional ideas of beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Rikyū emphasized simplicity, restraint, and the philosophy of wabi, Oribe became known for his adventurous aesthetic sensibility, embracing asymmetry, unconventional forms, expressive decoration, and playful designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis artistic influence is particularly evident in Oribe ware (織部焼), a distinctive style of Japanese pottery associated with the Mino ceramic tradition. Oribe ware is celebrated for its vibrant copper-green glazes, abstract geometric patterns, irregular shapes, and innovative designs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 12 x 21cm\u003cbr\u003e218 pages \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59120427204939,"sku":"BK79","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_52751908-7b75-46e0-ad4d-799edd0da190.jpg?v=1793727016","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/products\/bk79-tea-ceremony-furuta-oribe-by-osamu-kuno-1994","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
