This item is a pair set of rice bowls featuring the charming Annan Bird Yellow and White designs.
They come in a gift box with wrapping, making them an excellent choice as a special present for someone important.
Cherish the Everyday
Enjoy meals with your favorite bowl.
These bowls are crafted by Miyuki Matoba of nagusa, a studio in Yamashina, Kyoto. She named her studio “nagusa,” meaning “nameless grass,” to express her wish to create pottery that blends gently into everyday life.
This philosophy comes to life in these endearing and heartwarming bowls.
The Annan style originates from Vietnam and is known for its expressive glazes and natural variations in color. Each bowl offers unique charm through its soft bleeding effects and subtle shifts in tone, a true appeal of handmade Japanese ceramics.
The technique involves carving lines and then decorating with gosu (blue pigment), resulting in a gentle, inviting finish.
After studying fine arts at university, Matoba trained in ceramics in Kyoto. Her simple bird illustrations, drawn with graceful lines, bring a touch of warmth to the dining table or tea time.

Owner’s Comment
The wide, shallow shape and thin, lightweight body reflect the refined style of Kiyomizu ware rice bowls.
A rice bowl used every day makes a thoughtful and highly recommended gift, bringing the spirit of Kyoto’s traditional handmade pottery to daily meals.
