Japanese Matcha Bowl – Handmade Shigaraki-yaki Chawan | CHIGUSA by POEMS

CHIGUSA features a deep, charcoal-toned body illuminated by a striking, textured sweep of silvery-grey glaze. This dynamic, organic splash travels across the dark clay like a sudden brushstroke or a cresting wave, creating a captivating visual tension that makes this vessel a true centerpiece for your tea table. Handcrafted in Shigaraki, one of Japan’s renowned 6 Ancient Kilns, this matcha bowl embodies the raw, natural beauty that defines Shigaraki-yaki. Known for its earthy textures and expressive glazes, Shigaraki ceramics celebrate imperfection, grounding each tea ritual in authenticity.
