A formal or ritual offering of tea might use a tenmoku-style tea bowl placed on this kind of stand. Its scepter (nyoi) head and flower designs are delineated with silver wires, suggesting that this was produced in Japan, not China. The dark, muddy colors and glaze losses bespeak the underdeveloped technology in Japan at the time.
