Soft matcha bowls that reflect the four seasons

Ryohei Nakamura's matcha bowls are characterized by the gentle texture of ash glaze and delicate paintings of seasonal flowers and plants.

Designs that allow you to feel the four seasons of Japan, such as green maple leaves, cherry blossoms, irises, and autumn leaves, are carefully hand-painted one by one. While inheriting the tradition of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki, the bowls are finished with a calm appearance that naturally blends into daily life.

 

For tea ceremonies and everyday tea breaks

These bowls are not only perfect for tea ceremonies, but also recommended for enjoying matcha casually at home.

The gentle shape that fits comfortably in your hand and the calming colors evoke the changing seasons each time you use them, enriching your daily tea time.

Shopkeeper's comment

This is a matcha bowl by Ryoji-san, featuring a freshwater crab and flowing water painted on soft blue-gray ash glaze.

It depicts a cool mountain stream scene with a freshwater crab walking in clear water and a gently flowing water pattern, creating a refreshing atmosphere. The calm tones of the blue-gray ash glaze enhance the crisp air of the waterside, evoking a strong sense of the season.

With its gentle brushwork depicting nature, this bowl is perfect for summer tea ceremonies.
