Title	Stand for tenmoku-style teabowl
Description	Tenmoku teabowls (chawans) - either historical Chinese (karamono) originals or those modeled on them - usually rest on a lacquer stand, either formal black shin nuri as shown here or in a more decorative style. This is partly because they have a high center of gravity and may easily tip and because tenmoku chawan are considered to be extremely formal utensils.
