Know before you buy
Yes, the 4-7/8 inch diameter provides ample room for the back-and-forth whisking motion required to create a proper froth. The 2-3/4 inch height is specifically proportioned to contain the liquid while allowing your bamboo whisk to move freely.
Because each bowl is hand-glazed, you should expect slight variations in color and glaze patterns. These artisanal differences are intentional and mean that every piece has a unique character.
While the durable ceramic construction is high-quality, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the hand-glazed finish. Avoid using it in the microwave to prevent thermal shock, which can damage artisanal ceramics.
The Hakeme style typically features a brush-stroke aesthetic that provides a subtle, tactile quality. It is designed to be comfortable to hold in your hands while you enjoy your tea.
This bowl is versatile enough for both. Its traditional design makes it perfect for formal ceremonies, but its durable ceramic build and comfortable size make it an excellent choice for daily home use.
