Designed in the Oribe style, this matcha bowl stands out for its refined aesthetic and authentic character. When used with a chasen (bamboo whisk), it becomes the perfect tool for preparing traditional matcha tea, ensuring a smooth texture and delicate foam for a flawless result. This bowl is ideal for tea lovers wishing to savor a moment of serenity or enrich their collection of tea utensils. This bowl is neither microwave-safe nor dishwasher-safe in order to preserve the quality of its materials and its lacquered finish. Did you know? Oribe ceramics are distinguished by their artisanal approach, which embraces and even celebrates the element of chance. During the manufacturing process, artisans deliberately allow the fire, temperature variations, and the reactions of the glaze to create unique effects. This process may result in slight visible cracks in the glaze or unpredictable color variations, which do not affect the bowl’s functionality. Each piece is handmade in Japan, and variations from one piece to another (shapes, textures, colors) are completely normal. These variations contribute to the authenticity of these ceramics and are particularly sought after in the world of matcha and Oribe pottery, where the uniqueness of each bowl is an integral part of its beauty.
