Know before you buy
Yes, the 12 cm diameter provides ample space for the back-and-forth whisking motion required to create a proper froth for your matcha.
No, this piece is not compatible with microwaves, dishwashers, ovens, or freezers. We recommend hand-washing it gently to preserve the integrity of the ceramic and the turquoise glaze.
Each bowl is handcrafted in Japan and features the artist's signature on the base, ensuring its status as an authentic piece of artisan tea ware.
Because each piece is handcrafted, there may be slight variations in the turquoise glaze finish. These unique characteristics are part of the charm of authentic Japanese ceramics.
While it is categorized as a ramen bowl due to its dimensions, its primary design is optimized for the traditional matcha ritual. Its 8.5 cm height makes it a versatile vessel, though it is smaller than a standard large-format ramen bowl.
