Style: Kyo Ware Morning Glory Matcha Bowl$173.65

Inspired by traditional Kyo ware pottery, this Morning Glory matcha bowl reflects the quiet elegance of Japanese tea culture. Its gently flared shape sits naturally in the hands, allowing the matcha to be whisked smoothly while offering a comfortable, balanced grip. The pottery finish carries subtle variations in tone and texture, making each bowl feel personal and unique. Designed for daily tea rituals as well as mindful moments, it brings warmth, craftsmanship, and a sense of calm to the matcha experience.

Like all our pieces, it reflects the wabi-sabi philosophy — finding beauty in natural asymmetry, texture, and the marks of a handmade process. Learn more about the techniques and traditions behind Japanese ceramics.

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

Pottery is made from earthier clay than porcelain, with a warmer, more tactile body. The glaze pools and breaks over it, so you can see and feel the clay beneath.

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 Kyo (京焼) tradition. See where it comes from.

Our story

The fire of stone

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.
