About this product

The Hagane bowl is a unique matcha vessel that has gained its uniqueness thanks to its precise handcrafted workmanship on the potter's wheel. The bowl was created in Gifu Prefecture, where unique vessels called Shino have been fired in the Oroshi district of Toki City for hundreds of years. The brownish-gray tone gives the bowl elegance and at the same time highlights its origins. The color of the bowl is reflected in the name, as the word „hagane” means “steel” in Japanese.
