Elegant Hand-painted Motifs, A True Kyoto Tradition
This exquisite matcha bowl from Kyoto, Japan is a fine example of Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware pottery, featuring graceful hand-painted designs full of color and charm.
Each brushstroke reflects the painter’s refined sense of beauty, evoking the atmosphere and elegance of Kyoto’s long artistic heritage.
The soft, rounded shape created on the potter’s wheel is adorned with the refined Iroe (colored overglaze) technique passed down by Jyosui Kato, one of Kyoto’s most respected traditional ceramic artists.

A Moment of Calm with Every Season
Perfect not only for authentic tea ceremonies but also for quiet teatime at home, this handmade ceramic bowl invites you to experience a peaceful moment inspired by the changing seasons of Japan.
Its elegant presence adds a subtle, artistic touch to your space, whether on a tea table or displayed as interior decor.
The gentle form fits naturally in your hands, making it a perfect vessel for your daily matcha, green tea, or even dessert presentations.

The Beauty of Hand-painted Kyoto Ceramics
Jyosui Kato carries forward the artistic philosophy of Edo-period Kyoto pottery, where nature and harmony are captured through delicate lines and gentle hues.
Floral and auspicious motifs are expressed with refined brushwork and soft colors, embodying the timeless grace of traditional Japanese ceramic art.
This carefully crafted matcha bowl — imbued with the spirit of Kyoto craftsmanship — makes a meaningful and elegant gift for any occasion.
