A Quiet Presence, Rooted in Tradition
Matcha bowls of Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware have been refined over generations alongside Kyoto’s rich culture of tea and ceramics.
The subtle variations born of handcraft and the gentle feel that deepens with use add a quiet depth to each moment of tea.

Suitable not only for formal tea gatherings, but also for enjoying matcha at home.
Whether in use or simply resting in a room, it brings a soft and calming Japanese atmosphere to your space.
Choosing a Bowl Is Part of the Experience
At KOTOPOTTER, we curate Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware with a focus on both artistic character and everyday usability.
Please enjoy the moments of tea that begin with this single bowl.

Owner’s Comment
This design depicts plum blossoms together with branches stretching upward like spears, combining charm with a quiet sense of elegance.
The warm texture unique to pottery is complemented by gentle and delicate brushwork.
The slightly cylindrical shape makes it well suited for winter tea, adding a soft and calm expression to peaceful moments of tea.
