These matcha tea bowls (chawan) were handmade by British ceramic artist Ashley Howard, created as part of a special series of just twelve unique pieces. Each bowl differs slightly in size, glaze, and form, making every one a true original.

Ashley Howard’s ceramics are deeply influenced by his time in Japan, where he studied and worked with master potters. His work combines traditional Japanese aesthetics with a contemporary British approach, resulting in bowls that are both functional and collectible works of art.

Each chawan has been carefully shaped for the preparation and enjoyment of matcha, with a form that sits comfortably in the hands and a glaze that enhances the meditative experience of tea.
