Wood-Fired Shino Glaze Matcha Cup # 96207

This Shino-glazed matcha cup has a rounded, upright body, a softly irregular rim, and a dark raised foot. Its thick-looking walls and broad opening make whisked matcha easy to appreciate, while the foot gives a steady grip at the table.

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. The creamy peach surface, crackled glaze, dark fired accents, and brown foot reflect wood-firing; rinse gently, dry fully, and avoid sudden temperature changes.
