Kyo Ware Matcha Latte Pouring Bowl (Katakuchi) – Star Crystal Glaze | Wine Red

Bring the elegance of Kyoto craftsmanship to your matcha ritual with this handcrafted Katakuchi Matcha Latte Pouring Bowl by Tōan, a renowned Kyoto pottery studio established in 1922.

Finished in a rich Wine Red Star Crystal Glaze (Hoshi-Kesshō), this bowl showcases delicate star-like crystal patterns that naturally develop during the firing process. As the light changes, the surface reveals a brilliant crystalline shimmer with remarkable depth and character. Compared to the softer appearance of Flower Crystal glazes, Star Crystal is known for its sharp, radiant formations, making every bowl completely unique.

The traditional katakuchi (spouted) design provides smooth, drip-free pouring, making it ideal for preparing matcha lattes, whisking matcha, or serving sauces and dressings. Its refined design is equally suited for everyday use, casual tea gatherings, and formal tea ceremonies.

Each bowl is individually handcrafted, ensuring that no two crystal patterns are ever the same.
