Matcha bowl made of original Japanese ceramics – handmade Chawan in black

Expression of true craftsmanship: A Matcha bowl made of original Japanese ceramics
Black like liquid lacquer and interwoven with a mysteriously shimmering texture, this matcha bowl is anything but ordinary. Crafted in the traditional Han tsutsu-gata shape (半筒型), it embodies the deep connection to the Japanese tea ceremony and combines clarity, balance, and a tangible tactile quality that makes every tea ritual special.

Perfect measurements for preparing your Matcha
With a diameter of 11.5 cm, a height of 8.5 cm, and a weight of 434 grams, this bowl provides the perfect balance for traditional matcha preparation. The classically crafted Wa Kodai (輪高台) ring base not only ensures visual elegance but also stability—even with vigorous chasing.

Original Japanese ceramics – individually crafted, individually embossed
This chawan is a unique, handcrafted piece from Japan. Every firing process, every line of the design, every nuance of the glaze is the work of skilled hands – stamped with the ceramic artist's stamp as a sign of authenticity. The special black glaze is the result of a traditional recipe refined over generations. It gives the surface depth, luster, and a constantly changing texture in the light.

A piece of history in your hands
Purchased by one of our employees directly in Japan, this matcha bowl speaks of craftsmanship that lives on. Small irregularities in the glaze or shape are not flaws, but rather an expression of the individuality of each bowl. They are silent witnesses to a craft that requires time, dedication, and a deep sense of aesthetics—a legacy you can feel in your hands.

Form meets function – the magic of whipping matcha
The semi-cylindrical shape is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional: It allows for the tea aroma to develop evenly and produces fine-pored foam. Combined with its pleasant weight, the bowl sits comfortably in your hand—whether you're whisking matcha or enjoying another tea in it, it provides you with a special sense of calm every moment.

Soft surface, powerful presence
The touch unfolds an almost velvety feel – the glaze appears vibrant and natural. The dense clay and the carefully proportioned thickness of the walls make this matcha bowl a long-lasting companion. Its balance ensures that every movement of the tea ritual feels familiar and secure.

Mindfulness in care preserves beauty
To ensure you can enjoy this authentic Japanese ceramic for a long time, please clean it only with lukewarm water – without detergent. We also avoid extreme temperature fluctuations. With proper care, you can preserve the depth of the glaze and the delicate texture of this special bowl.

A teapot with soul
When you hold this bowl in your hands for the first time, you'll realize: There's more to it than just clay and glaze. A piece of living tea culture lives on here – tangible, visible, authentic. And perhaps it will soon become part of your own tea journey.
