The beauty of Shiratanba

This Shirotanba tea bowl by Masamoto Naosaku highlights the tranquil and pure beauty of the white glaze, and while it may appear simple at first glance, it is extremely profound in its expression.

The smooth surface and even application of the glaze make the experience of enjoying matcha even more special.

Value as a craft

This tea bowl, handcrafted by Masamoto Naosaku, is more than just a tool; it is a highly valued work of art. The fact that it comes with a certificate from the head of the family further increases its value, making it an extremely attractive collection item.

Please enjoy the beauty and comfort of this exquisite item by having it at hand. It will turn your everyday tea ceremony into something special.

It has the traditional texture of cracks and a flavor that deepens the more you use it.

This matcha bowl has a fine crack pattern called "crazing" that is unique to pottery. This is caused by the difference in the shrinkage rate of the glaze and the base after firing, and is not a defect. Rather, the cracking deepens the more you use it, developing a unique texture.

For first-time users

When tea gets into the crackle, it may look like a black or white line at first. This is tea stains that have soaked into the crackle, and it does not affect the use of the bowl. Rather, this soaking will become part of the bowl's appearance, and you will grow to love it even more.

For long-term use

After use, wash with cold or lukewarm water and dry thoroughly. If left submerged in water for a long time, moisture may seep in through the cracks and cause stains.

Returns and Exchanges

Crazing is a characteristic of the matcha bowl and does not mean it is a defective product. Therefore, we cannot accept returns or exchanges.
