Know before you buy
A Katakuchi bowl features a distinct pouring spout, originally designed for serving sake or sauces. In the context of matcha, this spout makes it much easier to pour prepared tea into individual cups without spilling.
No, this bowl is not microwave or dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it gently with mild soap to preserve the ceramic finish and the artist's signature.
The bowl measures 11 x 8 cm. Its size is well-suited for traditional matcha preparation, providing enough surface area for a bamboo whisk to move freely without being overly bulky in the hand.
As with most artisanal ceramics, avoid exposing the bowl to extreme temperature shocks, such as pouring boiling water directly into a cold bowl. Hand-washing and air-drying are the best ways to maintain its 10/10 condition.
No, this bowl does not feature a lid or a handle. It follows the traditional, minimalist design of a Japanese tea bowl, which is intended to be cradled in the palms of your hands.
