These bowls are beautiful. They're not cheap or necessary but I love them. The blended green and black/charcoal stoneware is extremely distinct and unique. I'll admit I use them for ice cream more than matcha though.
I bought this several months ago and use it daily. I love the glazed green on black. It is the perfect size for whisking matcha tea (Republic of Tea ceremonial matcha is my favorite) and then enjoying the yummy result. I loved it so much I bought another.
These are pretty, we bought 2, but I am surprised at all the 5 stars. Not because they aren't lovely and well made and artistic, but because the colors are way more muted in person. I would have loved the bright lime green as shown, that was the attraction, but I have to admit I was really surprised when I first opened them because they really didn't look like the photo. I reached out and was told I could return them. I really just wished the photo had been more representative. I personally love the brightness of the image. If you don't mind them being more subtle and less electric in color, they are a wonderful size, shape and quality.
Beautiful piece Perfect size
It is the perfect size for preparing and drinking matcha tea. I use the bamboo whisk with it.
Love the size, shape, and especially the textures. So glad I held out to find one I really like, and for a great price. The only thing I would mention is that my particular bowl is not level on the bottom and so rattles when I use the chasen to stir. Still, it's the best. Thanks.
I bought 2 more after really liking the first. All 3 bowls look fantastic!
