Matcha Bowl - Luster glaze “Floral Millefleur” B by Syunzan Kiln

Savor the Seasons of Kyoto

Founded in 1917 at the foot of Sennyu-ji Temple in Higashiyama, Kyoto, Shunzan-gama is a prestigious kiln that builds upon the traditional foundations of Kiyomizu-yaki. While honoring heritage, they pursue designs that harmonize with modern living. Each handmade piece features hand-painted floral motifs, bringing the delicate elegance of Kyoto's changing seasons to your table.

The Warmth of Artisanal Craftsmanship

The thick, earthy texture of the clay provides a comfortable feel in your hands, making this ceramic bowl an endearing companion for your tea rituals. Its gentle colors and pearlescent "Luster" glow bring a touch of "Miyabi" (refined Japanese aesthetic) to your daily life. The more you use this pottery, the more its character and charm will grow.

Art Built for Daily Joy

At Shunzan-gama, the philosophy is simple: "To be admired as art, and to bring joy through use." Despite its generous size, the bowl is surprisingly lightweight, reflecting the meticulous handmade craftsmanship of the artisans. We invite you to integrate this masterpiece of Japanese traditional craft into your daily mindfulness practice.

Shop Owner’s Note

This stunning Matcha bowl features delicate blossoms outlined using the traditional "Itchin" (slip-trailing) technique, adding a beautiful tactile dimension. The elegant "Luster" finish provides a sophisticated, iridescent shimmer that elevates any tea ceremony.

While it has a larger, more present silhouette, it feels remarkably light and balanced in the hand. It is a perfect choice for spring tea gatherings or as a centerpiece for your collection. Each piece is delivered in a custom wooden box signed by the artist, making it an exceptional gift for connoisseurs of Japanese pottery.
