Description
This simple and modern matcha bowl offers a harmonious blend of function and tradition—perfect for whisking a smooth cup of matcha or serving small portions at the table. Crafted using traditional Minoyaki pottery techniques from the Mino region, this bowl carries with it over 1,000 years of ceramic heritage, presented in a form that’s both versatile and beautiful.
Available in three classic Mino ware glazes—Seto black (glossy and rich), Shino white (natural and soft), and Oribe green (deep and earthy)—each bowl is unique, shaped by the kiln’s fire and the potter’s hand. From slight variations in shape to glazes that drip, pool, or reveal delicate iron spots, no two are exactly alike—making every piece a one-of-a-kind expression of traditional Japanese ceramic art.
The coarse clay body lends each bowl a subtly rustic feel, with small surface holes, natural texture, and occasional “intrusion” cracks caused during the cooling process—accompanied by a faint, melodic “kin” sound at first use. These are not flaws, but features to be appreciated, offering insight into the piece’s making and continued evolution.

All sizing information is for guide purposes only.
Where possible we provide individual product size guides. If these aren't
available we provide a generic brand size guide. Individual garments may
differ from these measurements and we cannot guarantee the item you receive
will match these measurements exactly.
Many brands also have a level of tolerance in size differences
between the same item - this is usually 0.5 inches.
If no size guide is shown below, it means there is not one available at
present for this item and it will be added if/when it becomes available.
