Mino Ware Matcha Bowl - Jet Black Lacquer & Gold Leaf

A timeless Japanese form, reimagined in black and gold.

Crafted in the tradition of Mino ware, this matcha bowl combines the organic beauty of wheel-thrown ceramics with the rich depth of Japanese lacquer artistry.

The deep jet-black finish creates a dramatic canvas for scattered gold-leaf accents, which catch the light with every movement of the bowl. Against the darkness of the lacquer, each fragment of gold appears almost suspended on the surface—giving the piece a bold yet refined presence.

Each bowl is shaped by hand on a potter’s wheel, resulting in subtle variations in form that make every piece unique. Traditional ceramic craftsmanship is then combined with specialized lacquer techniques to create textures and visual depth that ceramics alone cannot achieve.

Designed for enjoying matcha, yet striking enough to stand on its own as an object of Japanese design.

And despite its sophisticated finish, the bowl is dishwasher-safe, bringing together craftsmanship, beauty, and everyday practicality.
