Tea ware from Japan and beyond to complete your matcha moments
Handmade in Gifu, Japan | Cracked White & Grey-Silver Minoware Chawan (美濃焼)
This Minoware Chawan is a study in quiet elegance and imperfection. Handcrafted in Gifu, Japan — the birthplace of Minoware (美濃焼) ceramics — its interior features a timeless cracked white glaze, while the exterior is washed in soft grey and silver tones, highlighting the subtle textures of the clay beneath. Every line and fissure tells the story of fire, glaze, and hand, making each bowl entirely unique.
The generous form allows for smooth, full whisking of matcha, while its weight and balance offer a comfortable, mindful grip. This is a chawan that invites ritual, contemplation, and the simple joy of tea.
A Legacy of Minoware
With over 1,300 years of tradition, Minoware has shaped Japan’s tea culture from the Momoyama period onward, inspiring iconic styles like Shino and Oribe. Each bowl reflects that heritage — a dialogue between clay, fire, and human touch, celebrating the beauty found in imperfection.
A vessel of serene beauty, made to elevate your matcha experience.
