Matcha Bowls
A matcha bowl — known in Japanese as a chawan (茶碗) — is the heart of the Japanese tea ceremony. At Great Zakka, we carry a carefully curated collection of authentic handmade matcha bowls crafted by artisans across Japan, from the bold hand-painted designs of Kutani ware to the earthy textures of Mino and Shigaraki stoneware.
What makes a great matcha bowl? The best chawan fit comfortably in both hands, have a wide enough opening to whisk matcha easily, and carry a character that deepens with use. Our collection spans a wide range of styles — vibrant Kutani overglaze designs, minimalist wabi-sabi stoneware, rustic wood-fired finishes, and seasonal motifs like cherry blossoms and autumn leaves.
Whether you're building a tea ceremony practice, looking for a daily matcha ritual piece, or searching for a meaningful handmade gift for a tea lover, you'll find the right bowl here. All pieces are made in Japan and ship from our US warehouse. In-store pickup available in Great Neck, NY.
Styles available: Kutani ware · Mino ware · Shigaraki ware · Hagi ware · Satsuma ware
