24k Gold Matcha Bowl (Beige)

A uniquely beautiful matcha bowl, skillfully restored using the traditional Japanese art of kintsugi. This careful and deliberate repair, carried out with patience and precision, not only preserves the bowl’s natural beauty but also celebrates the cracks and imperfections that reveal its history. Genuine 24k gold traces each fracture, creating a striking contrast with the ceramic’s texture and tone, and transforming the piece into a true work of art.

Combining timeless craftsmanship with luxurious materials, this one-of-a-kind ceramic matcha bowl is ideal for those who value the artistry of handmade pottery and seek to add a refined elegance to their tea-drinking experience.

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.
