Matcha Bowl - Ash Glaze “Holly” by Ryoji

A serene presence that inherits tradition

Kyo ware / Kiyomizu ware matcha bowls are tea utensils that have been refined alongside the culture of pottery cultivated in Kyoto.

The subtle irregularities unique to handcrafted items and the familiar feel that develops with use add depth to your tea time.

For tea ceremonies and daily tea breaks alike

Of course, they can be used for tea ceremonies, but also for enjoying matcha at home.

Not only when in use, but even when simply displayed, they add a gentle Japanese ambiance to the room.

A comment from the owner

This is Ryoji's matcha bowl, featuring a subtle ash glaze with a holly design.

Carefully depicting holly with its sharp leaves and vibrant berries, the design evokes the clear air of winter. Holly has long been cherished as a protective tree against evil, deeply rooted in Japanese life.

It is a bowl that harmonizes the rustic beauty of ash glaze with seasonal brushwork, allowing you to enjoy the winter ambiance.
