Kiyomizu Ware Tea Ceramics by Kaifū Yagi

Crafted in Yamashiro, Kyoto—an area close to Uji and deeply connected to Japanese tea culture—this matcha bowl is created by Kaifū Yagi, a kiln master devoted to traditional tea ceramics from Japan.

Its precise form and refined presence reflect years of handmade craftsmanship, shaped with careful attention to Kyoto pottery and the aesthetics of tea.

Hand-Painted Details, Each One Unique

Each matcha bowl is carefully hand-painted, with subtle variations in brushwork and spacing that give every piece its own individual character.

No two bowls are exactly alike—this individuality is a defining quality of handmade ceramic art and part of the pleasure of choosing a piece that feels personal.

Practical Elegance for Tea Time

From the depth of the bowl to the comfort of the rim and the balance in hand, every detail is thoughtfully shaped with real, everyday use in mind.

Suitable for both regular practice and relaxed daily tea moments, this bowl quietly enhances the tea experience.

Tea Ceramic Artist: Kaifū Yagi

Born in 1950 in Yamashiro, Kyoto.

After completing his studies at the Kyoto Prefectural Ceramic Training School, he apprenticed under the first-generation ceramic artist Josui Kato.

Specializing in traditional Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware tea ceramics, he has received numerous awards at major ceramic art exhibitions.

In 2003, he was officially recognized as a Traditional Craftsman of Kiyomizu Ware.

He continues to create pottery at his studio in Yamashiro-Taga, Kyoto.

Owner’s Comment

Delicate plum blossoms and a horseshoe motif gently convey wishes for good fortune. Soft brushwork and calm, balanced colors come together in an elegant composition. A matcha bowl that subtly brings a sense of luck and positivity to New Year tea gatherings or meaningful milestones.
