A Kiyomizu ware tea bowl (chawan) featuring a beautifully hand-painted crane design. In Japan, the crane is an auspicious bird symbolizing longevity and good fortune — making this bowl a meaningful gift for celebrations and milestones. Comes in a wooden box, ready to present. As each piece is handmade, size and color may vary subtly between individual bowls. Not microwave-safe or dishwasher-safe. What is Kiyomizu Ware? Kiyomizu Ware is one of Kyoto's most celebrated traditional crafts, known for its exceptional decorativeness and variety of styles. Unlike many regional ceramics, it has no fixed aesthetic — instead embracing a wide range of techniques and expressions, from delicate hand-painting to bold glazework. This freedom of style is what makes Kiyomizu Ware so distinctive and enduring. 【Specification】・Material: Ceramics・Size: φ12 × H8 cm・Not microwave-safe, not dishwasher-safe・Weight: 560 g・Made in Japan Product Type: KITCHEN AND DININGCollection: TEA CEREMONY > MATCHA BOWLCollection: POTTERYCollection: KIYOMIZU WARE
