Chawan 茶碗 | Traditional Matcha Bowl

PRE-ORDER: Available by November 28

A chawan is a bowl that is essential in traditional Japanese tea ceremony, designed for both preparing and drinking matcha. Our chawan is artisanally crafted by Marco Rosario (@marcorokuro), a local studio potter whose work beautifully balances functionality with contemporary aesthetics. The bowl's thoughtful proportions and depth make it perfect for preparing both usucha (thin tea) and koicha (thick tea)

• Studio Pottery: Each piece is handcrafted locally in small batches
• Contemporary Design: Clean white glaze accentuates the natural ceramic texture and modern form
• Versatile Function: Perfectly suited for both usucha (thin tea) and koicha (thick tea)
• Traditional Form: Ideal depth and width for proper whisking motion and comfortable drinking experience

1. First Use: Rinse with warm water before initial use
2. Regular Care: Hand wash with gentle soap and warm water
3. After Use: Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth
4. Storage: Store in a dry place, avoid extreme temperature changes

Note: As each piece is individually hand-built and glazed, slight variations in size, glaze, and texture may occur, making each piece a unique work of ceramic art.
