A Life with a Lipped Bowl

To celebrate our first collaboration with TOKINOHA Ceramic Studio from Yamashina, Kyoto, Kurasu Kyoto introduces a lipped bowl for you to enjoy Matcha green tea at home. 

The bowl embodies the unique harmony of the craftspersonship and the minimalistic aesthetics- it is pleasing to the eye as is versatile, and it serves not only as a small Matcha bowl but for varieties of occasions to add an authentic touch of Japanese art to your home.

A small lip (spout) helps a smooth pouring of tea into your mugs/glass, or serving salad dressing at dinner- of course, you can use it as a matcha tea bowl to enjoy the tea directly from it, or let your creativity run free, float a seasonal flower and use it as a vase.

Check out our beautiful Chashaku (Tea spoon) and Chasen (Tea whisk) to enjoy the authentic green tea experience.
