Collection: Wajima lacquerware Matcha Bowl
A Japanese Matcha Bowl, known as a Chawan (茶碗), is an essential tool in the Japanese tea ceremony used for preparing and drinking matcha (powdered green tea). Its design and craftsmanship are deeply rooted in Japanese aesthetics and tea culture.
Key Features of a Matcha Bowl (Chawan):
Material: Typically made from ceramic or pottery, sometimes with glaze variations that create unique textures and colors.
Shape: Broad and deep with a wide opening, allowing room for whisking matcha with a bamboo whisk (chasen).
Size: Larger than regular tea cups, designed to hold enough matcha for ceremonial use.
Tamekichi Mitsui
The art of Mitsui Tamekichi captures the depth and sensibilities of discipline and aesthetic refinement. His use of vibrant Kutani gosai "five colors" and elegant, dignified expressions bring to life the sophisticated artistry of natural motifs. By embracing ko-Kutani or old Kutani styles and perfecting techniques passed down through the centuries, his creations garner admiration for the enduring classical beauty of Kutani ware's polychrome artistry.
