Illustration of the owner

Owner’s Comment

Set against a softly toned, white ash-glazed surface, cherry blossoms in pink and white create a gentle and refined impression.

The nuanced texture of the ash glaze is complemented by a flowing water motif expressed in the unglazed lower area, adding a quiet sense of movement.

A matcha bowl that brings a seasonal touch to spring tea gatherings and can be enjoyed with a calm and graceful presence.
