Purple Gradient Matcha Bowl

This matcha bowl features a soft color gradation and smooth texture. The calm, cylindrical form and refined atmosphere make it suitable for both tea ceremonies and daily matcha time.

The gentle purple tone is created by applying a white glaze over reddish clay that contains a high amount of iron, rather than using a purple glaze. Depending on the condition of the kiln and the bowls placement during firing, it may develop more blue or red hues, making each piece truly one of a kind.

Fine crackles known as kannyu add depth to the surface. As with all Hagi ware, its color and texture gradually change with use, a phenomenon known as the seven transformations of Hagi ware or Hagi no nanabake.

The bowl is perfectly sized to be gently cradled in both hands. With its comfortable shape and approachable design, it is a welcoming choice for both those new to matcha and experienced connoisseurs alike.

Packaged in a gift box, it also makes a thoughtful and elegant present.
