The Story Behind This Piece
Created by a ceramicist who trained for 15 years under a designated Living National Treasure in Kyoto. Each bowl is fired in a traditional wood-burning kiln, pulled from the flames at peak temperature, and cooled rapidly — making every piece utterly unique. Used in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies.
