Know before you buy
A Katakuchi bowl features a distinct pouring spout, which makes it much easier to transfer your prepared matcha into a serving cup or vessel without spilling. It is a functional design choice that simplifies the ritual of whisking and pouring.
This bowl is not dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer safe. To maintain the integrity of the glaze and the handcrafted ceramic, we recommend hand washing it gently with mild soap and warm water, then drying it thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Yes, its versatile design makes it suitable for various uses beyond tea. While it is perfectly sized for whisking matcha, it can also serve as a small decorative bowl for snacks, sauces, or as a unique piece for holding small items.
