Generously shaped bowl, its large capacity allows for preparing tea directly in this container, such as for matcha (whisked tea) or any other tea using an infuser.
This bowl is a unique piece, meaning there cannot be two strictly identical bowls. It is made of porcelain and fired at a high temperature of 1300°C. It is finely shaped by hand on the potter’s wheel. This bowl features a glossy and transparent glaze on the interior while the exterior remains unglazed porcelain. As a result, an extraordinary play between light and shadow and the translucency of porcelain is achieved.
Despite lacking decoration, the surface is nevertheless pictorial. The texture work created by stretching a porcelain slab gives a textile-like impression.
Beyond the visual aspect of the piece, its instructive surface speaks volumes about its design… the turned base of the bowl and the textured wall of unglazed porcelain contrast between smoothness and roughness.
Due to the composition of the glaze on the interior and the high hardness of the porcelain, this ceramic is purely food-safe. It is completely waterproof and non-porous. It perfectly withstands the aggressions of the dishwasher or even the microwave oven. Only a violent impact could potentially damage it.
Depending on the tannin content of the consumed beverages, such as coffee or certain teas, a natural seasoning may appear on the interior surface after some time of use. Some may prefer to keep it, while others will clean it with baking soda.
