Shigaraki Black Matcha Bowl | Nishio Teruyuki
This handcrafted Shigaraki ware matcha bowl is made from black coarse clay, skillfully shaped by hand into an organic, irregular form, making each bowl truly unique. Shigaraki, one of Japan’s oldest pottery traditions, is known for its rustic charm and natural textures, with this piece reflecting the essence of its earthy, raw beauty. The high-temperature firing process enhances the clay’s ability to capture and reflect light, giving it a subtle, ever-changing sheen. This bowl beautifully exemplifies the principles of wabi-sabi, which celebrates the beauty in imperfection and transience. Each use offers a chance to enjoy its one-of-a-kind character, inviting a deeper connection with the object and the quiet simplicity of Japanese aesthetics. ----------------------- Diameter: 11 cm (4.33 inches)Height: 6.5 cm (2.56 inches) Material: Ceramic /Shigaraki Ware Origin: Japan Dishwasher /No, Microwave Oven /No Please note that due to the handmade nature of this product, slight variations in
