Black Kairagi Matcha Bowl
The details
About this piece
A chawan is a wide bowl in which matcha is whisked and then drunk from the same bowl. It is held in both hands, and its width gives the whisk room to make a fine foam.
The material
Porcelain is fired at a very high temperature until the clay turns dense, hard and smooth. It is thin for its strength, takes bright colour and fine painting well, and rings clearly when tapped.
Its character
Glazes and decoration vary slightly from piece to piece, so yours may differ a little from the photograph. That is part of how ceramics are made.
It belongs to the Kairagi (梅花皮) tradition. See where it comes from.

Our story
The fire of stone
石の火
Ishi no KA means “the fire of stone”: the place where raw earth meets heat and becomes something lasting.
We choose each piece in Tokyo, working with kilns and workshops across Japan, and we keep their small natural variations, because imperfection is the mark of a human hand.
