Graceful yet functional, this handmade katakuchi chawan (spouted matcha bowl) is designed for both traditional tea rituals and contemporary use. Its distinctive floral rim lends a gentle elegance, softening the bowl’s silhouette while celebrating the organic beauty of hand-formed clay. The subtle spout makes it versatile — ideal for whisking matcha or for pouring with ease.
Finished in a powdered snow-white glaze, the surface glows with quiet purity, textured with faint, delicate nuances that reveal the dialogue between fire and earth. Under different light, the glaze shifts in depth, sometimes matte and powdery, sometimes with a soft translucent sheen — a reminder of the kiln’s unpredictable artistry.
Comfortably balanced in the hands, this chawan invites you to slow down, to savor, to transform a simple daily act into a mindful ritual. More than tableware, it is a vessel of calm — where timeless craftsmanship meets the serene poetry of wabi-sabi.
Whether used in your daily tea ritual or displayed as a piece of artisanal tableware, this katakuchi bowl brings quiet elegance to the moment.
