24k Gold Kintsugi Matcha Bowl (White/Light Blue)

A truly unique matcha bowl, thoughtfully restored using the traditional Japanese art of kintsugi. This careful repair, carried out with patience and precision, not only preserves the bowl’s natural character but also draws attention to the distinctive cracks and imperfections that tell its story. Genuine 24k gold traces each fracture, creating a beautiful contrast with the ceramic’s texture and tone—transforming it into a striking work of art.

Combining time-honored craftsmanship with refined materials, this one-of-a-kind ceramic matcha bowl is ideal for those who value handmade pottery and seek to add a touch of elegance to their tea ritual.

I use only traditional kintsugi techniques (no epoxy and mica powder); natural urushi lacquers are cured in a muro box and 24k gold for food vessels, both of which are food safe. I also use genuine silver, copper and brass (as well as gold) for repairs not being used for food or drink. All vessels in my shop (matcha bowl, tea cup/pot, Ikebana/vase, mugs, tumblers etc.) have been tested for water fastness.
