Owner's Comment
A matcha bowl covered with a thick layer of white slip, where the crackled kairagi texture appears across the surface.
This distinctive effect is created during firing, giving each bowl its own unique expression.
The form is precise and well balanced, reflecting the skill of Yoshiro Taya, who is known for his mastery of the potter’s wheel.
The harmony of rustic clay texture and refined shape gives this bowl a calm presence, even in everyday tea moments.
