A handmade Shino ware matcha bowl from Japan’s Keizan Kiln. With its soft glaze and rustic charm, this tea bowl is a timeless piece of ceramic artistry.
Rustic Charm from Midcentury Japan
This vintage Japanese matcha bowl is a beautiful reflection of wabi-sabi aesthetics — quiet, imperfect, and full of depth.
Handcrafted in the 1950s, it features a coarse, stone-textured glaze in muted whites and earthy greys, giving it a weathered and soulful look. The rough, uneven surface is intentional — every line and imperfection adds to its quiet poetry.
Perfect for tea lovers, collectors of Japanese ceramics, or anyone who appreciates objects with soul and story.

What is Jianzhan teaware?
It’s a special kind of teacup with iron-rich glaze. When fired, the glaze creates beautiful patterns like oil spots or streaks. No two are ever the same! -
Is it food safe?
Yep — 100% safe to use with food or drink. -
Does it contain lead?
The clay comes from natural earth, so it may have tiny traces — but under 0.01%, way below safety limits. We don’t add any lead. The glaze is made from natural iron ore and wood ash only. -
Do you ship worldwide?
Sure do! We ship to the US, Canada, Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, South Africa, the Middle East — and more. -
