Shop Owner’s Note

This bowl beautifully captures the dual nature of spring. It features a "Kake-wake" (split-glaze) design, where one side presents a rustic, wabi-sabi texture while the other reveals a stunning scene of full-bloom cherry blossoms.

The contrast between the earthy, quiet tones and the vibrant Sakura creates a sophisticated visual balance. It is an elegant piece that adds a serene yet celebratory flair to your tea table, perfect for seasonal gatherings or a mindful moment of peace.
