Purple Floral Hira Chawan – Summer Matcha Bowl

Celebrate the beauty of summer tea gatherings with this handcrafted Purple Floral Hira Chawan, a traditional Japanese flat matcha bowl made in Kyoto.

Unlike deeper matcha bowls, a Hira Chawan features a wide, shallow shape that allows matcha to cool more quickly, making it the preferred style for the warmer months. Its broad surface also beautifully showcases the vivid green color and delicate foam of freshly whisked matcha.

Each bowl is individually hand-painted with an elegant purple floral design, creating a graceful balance of seasonal beauty and timeless Japanese craftsmanship. No two pieces are exactly alike, making every bowl a unique work of art.

Whether you're practicing Japanese tea ceremony or simply enjoying matcha at home, this bowl offers both beauty and functionality. It also makes a thoughtful gift for tea lovers, collectors, and anyone who appreciates authentic Japanese ceramics.
