Matcha Bowl with Iron Brushstrokes

This matcha bowl, made from Shigaraki clay, is adorned with dynamic brushstrokes. The spirited flow and subtle textures of the brushwork, combined with the earthy feel of the clay, result in a piece of exquisite beauty and depth. Beyond its use for preparing and savoring tea, it also invites appreciation as a decorative object. This piece is created by applying brushstrokes with an iron glaze onto a bowl meticulously finished on the potter's wheel. The iron glaze used for these strokes was prepared in-house, with raw materials gathered from nearby rice paddies. The foot of the bowl is also carefully finished, providing a stable base. Its coloring beautifully complements the vibrant green of matcha. It can be used as a matcha bowl, a rice bowl, or even a small serving bowl for donburi. It pairs easily with other tableware, making it an ideal gift for those who appreciate fine ceramics. You can also enjoy how its character deepens with each use.
