This matcha cup combines a rounded body with a softly uneven rim and a dark raised foot. The broad, open interior supports whisking comfortably, while the foot keeps the warm bowl slightly elevated and easy to hold during a quiet tea moment.
Known as a chawan, this bowl-shaped vessel belongs to the Japanese matcha tradition. Chawan developed as a dedicated tea bowl for whisking and drinking matcha, and is held in both hands during a tea gathering, with its form valued for tactile presence.
Made in China, it follows the Shino glaze style associated with the Mino kilns of Japan. Cream and peach fields are crossed by fine crackling, pale green areas, and darker wood-fired traces; rinse gently, dry fully, and avoid sudden temperature changes.
