Yuko Ikeda’s matcha bowls (chawan) are celebrated for their emotional depth and refined craftsmanship. More than just functional objects, her pieces evoke a quiet, profound sensibility that resonates with those who use them. Each bowl is one of a kind, reflecting her deep dedication to her craft and her strong connection to the art of tea. Collectors and tea enthusiasts alike value her work for its ability to embody both aesthetic beauty and emotional nuance.

This matcha bowl is finished with multiple layers of glaze. It is crafted from clay blended with traditional Japanese washi paper. Each piece is first fired in a kerosene kiln, then refired in an electric kiln to achieve its final form.
