Wood-Fired Matcha Bowl # 96191

The chawan has a rounded belly, a comfortable raised rim and a visible spiral mark inside the bowl, giving it a tactile presence during whisking. Its open shape provides room for matcha, water and the bamboo whisk to move freely.

Chawan is Japanese for tea bowl and is used to prepare and drink whisked matcha. The broad bowl belongs to a long tea tradition in which the vessel remains in the hands, inviting attention to its shape and surface during use.

This Chinese ceramic bowl carries warm russet and brown tones, with pale ash-like variation across the wood-fired exterior. The interior spiral contrasts with its softly darkened rim. Rinse gently, dry thoroughly and store it away from sudden temperature changes.
