Touan | Katakuchi Latte Bowl :Flower Crystal Glaze
Kyo | Touan Katakuchi Bowl :Flower Crystal Glaze
Color: 13 Yellow Green
Crafted by Touan Kiln, a long-established Kyoto-based pottery studio founded in 1922, this matcha bowl features their original glazing technique known as Hana-Kessho-yu (Flower Crystal Glaze).
The mesmerizing crystalline patterns—resembling blossoms blooming on the surface—are created naturally as minerals within the glaze crystallize during the firing process. Depending on the angle of the light, the appearance of the pattern subtly changes, adding depth and beauty to each piece.
The soft, hand-thrown curves and convenient spouted katakuchi shape make this bowl both functional and elegant—perfect for formal tea gatherings, tea workshops, or casual tea moments. Since each glaze forms uniquely, no two bowls are the same, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
Kindly note that each piece is individually handmade, so the color and crystal pattern may differ slightly from the photo. We appreciate your understanding.
