White Plum Matcha Bowl
This matcha bowl features delicately painted white plum blossoms set against a backdrop of generously applied gold leaf. The contrast between the crisp white petals and the rich gold surface creates a striking yet refined aesthetic.
Crafted by Yamada Toyoshi, a renowned porcelain artist celebrated for his masterful use of gold, silver, and platinum, this piece embodies his signature style of layering precious metals to achieve depth and brilliance.
In the language of flowers, white plum blossoms symbolize “dignity” and “a clear heart.” Their elegant presence adds a sense of refinement to the bowl’s design.
Handcrafted on a potter’s wheel, the bowl has a comfortable weight and thickness that helps retain the warmth of freshly whisked matcha. The shape fits naturally in the hands, enhancing the tea-drinking experience.
