Owner’s Comment

This matcha bowl features a unique design inspired by kintsugi, the traditional Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold—here intentionally transformed into a decorative motif.

The subdued, earthy glaze reminiscent of aged persimmon leaves is accented by bold gold lines that move freely across the surface, creating a striking yet refined presence.
