Mino Ware Kataguchi Matcha Bowl Set — 5-Piece, Shell Glaze

A large, rustic Mino ware kataguchi bowl with a flowing two-tone glaze — cream and sandy at the base, with green pooling across the surface and dark iron-spot markings scattered throughout. The layered glaze effect gives the bowl a depth that shifts in different light. Heavily textured from the wheel, with a wide mouth that makes whisking easy and a clean pour spout.

The set includes a 100-tine bamboo chasen (Hyakuhon-tate) in its protective case, a dark green ribbed ceramic chasen holder (kuse-naoshi) glazed to complement the bowl, a natural bamboo chashaku, and a wide fine-mesh stainless strainer with a natural wood handle. Part of the Cesa Beams matcha collection — a Tokyo-based brand born in Kappabashi Dougugai, built to Japanese design and material standards. Everything arrives ready to use. Made in Japan.
