Crafted for Effortless Whisking & Pouring: Handcrafted Katakuchi Chawan
Meet the ultimate bridge between traditional Japanese tea craft and modern ritual: the Katakuchi Chawan.

The Craft & Visual Poetry
Lustrous Amber & Ash Glaze (Ame-yu): Features deep caramel and tortoiseshell tones that blend into a mist-grey, speckled interior. The rich glaze drips organically down the body, revealing the raw, sandy texture of the unglazed foot ring.
Integrated Drip-Free Spout (Katakuchi): Purposefully designed for clean, smooth pouring. Whether you're making a layered matcha latte or sharing tea with guests, the ergonomic spout ensures complete control over your pour.
Generous Whisking Basin: The wide interior curve and gentle indentation at the base (chadamari) give your bamboo whisk (chasen) ample room to aerate the matcha, creating velvety micro-foam quickly and evenly.
Artisan Seal on the Base: Marked with the potter's authentic maker’s seal stamped directly into the unglazed stoneware clay on the bottom.
