White Tenmoku Matcha Bowl – Handcrafted Mino Ware Gift Box | MIWA Tableware

About This Piece

Handcrafted in Mino, Japan, this White Tenmoku Matcha Bowl captures the serene beauty of Japanese pottery through a striking contrast of light and shadow.
Traditionally, tenmoku glazes are deep and dark, yet here, the artisan has reversed that palette—creating a luminous white surface with natural iron markings that resemble falling snow or flowing water.

Each piece is shaped and fired by hand, resulting in gentle curves and organic variations that embody wabi-sabi, the Japanese appreciation of natural imperfection and quiet balance.
Its calm presence invites you to slow down and reconnect with the ritual of preparing tea.

Why We Love It

Perfect for a quiet morning matcha or as a refined gift for tea lovers.
The softly rounded rim fits beautifully in the hands, and the subtle sheen of the glaze changes with the light—making each tea moment unique.
Presented in an elegant black gift box, this bowl makes a timeless gesture of care and beauty.

Pair it with a small mamezara (dessert plate) to serve traditional wagashi or sweets alongside your tea.
