Owner’s Illustration

Owner’s Comment

This elegant matcha bowl portrays Murasaki Shikibu together with blooming cherry blossoms, a design rich in cultural symbolism and seasonal beauty.

The glossy finish and raised slip-trailing (itchin) technique add remarkable depth and radiance to the design.

Slightly smaller in size, it fits naturally in the hand and is easy to use, while retaining its refined presence.

A work that reflects Ichinyo Yamamoto’s signature style—vivid, graceful, and perfect for spring tea gatherings.
