Wood-Fired Matcha Bowl # 96189

The chawan has a strongly undulating profile, a broad opening and a stable foot, creating a tactile grip around the bowl while leaving ample room for whisking matcha. A pronounced side fold adds visual movement and character.

Chawan is Japanese for tea bowl, a form associated with preparing and drinking whisked matcha. In the wider East Asian tea tradition, bowls were valued for their generous interiors, which allow tea to be mixed and presented directly at the table.

This Chinese bowl has a warm brown ceramic body with plum, grey and amber variations produced by wood firing. The ridged surface and darkened rim are part of its character. Rinse gently and dry completely after use.
