Kuro-Raku “Kakuyō” Matcha Bowl

Kyoto Ware (Kyo-yaki)　黒楽赫燿 

Kuro-Raku (Black Raku) matcha bowl, titled “Kakuyō” (Radiant Glow), is crafted in the tradition of Kyoto ware and designed specifically for the Japanese tea ceremony.

The deep black glaze absorbs light, allowing the vibrant green of matcha to stand out beautifully.
Subtle variations in the surface and firing marks reflect the hand-crafted nature of Raku ware, where each bowl is shaped and fired individually.

“Kakuyō,” meaning radiant brilliance, refers to the quiet glow that emerges from within the darkness—an expression of calm strength and refined presence valued in tea practice.
