Satsuma Tenmoku Matcha Bowl and Whisk Set - 450ml
The Satsuma Tenmoku Matcha Bowl features a dramatic and traditional Japanese glaze.

This powerful aesthetic is central to the Tenmoku style, prized for centuries in Japanese tea ceremonies.
The bowl's classic shape is designed to be held comfortably and provides ample room for whisking matcha to a smooth froth.

About Tenmoku Glaze
Tenmoku is a type of high-iron Japanese pottery glaze fired at high temperatures. Originally from China, it became highly esteemed in Japan, especially for tea bowls used in tea ceremonies. The glaze is known for its deep, lustrous black and brown tones, often with distinctive patterns like "oil spots" or "hare's fur" that form during the firing process.
