Experience the calming, aesthetic spirit of an authentic Japanese tea ceremony with this Kobiki-sogime matcha bowl (Chawan). The bowl is crafted using the traditional Kobiki glazing technique, where a white clay slip is applied over a darker clay body, combined with Sogime — hand-carved vertical grooves that create a wonderful tactile texture. Each piece features subtle variations in glaze that make it entirely unique.
With its compact 9.7 cm diameter and 6.5 cm height, the bowl sits perfectly in the hands while whisking your matcha. The rustic surface and subtle variations in glaze color make each bowl a one-of-a-kind work of art on the tea table.
