The Way of Tea: Chawans and Ceremony Utensils

This collection celebrates the spirit of the Japanese tea ceremony through a curated selection of Chawan (tea bowls) and traditional utensils used in Chanoyu.

At its center are the Chawans—vessels made not just for function, but for quiet contemplation. From rustic Raku to refined Shino and Hagi forms, each bowl is shaped by the hand of the maker and guided by the philosophy of wabi-sabi: imperfect, intimate, and deeply human. Their glazes, textures, and proportions are meant to be held, observed, and experienced.

Complementing the tea bowls are essential ceremonial implements: water jars (mizusashi), bamboo ladles (hishaku), and lacquered caddies—each one playing a vital role in the silent choreography of the tea ritual. Together, these objects offer a glimpse into a world where beauty is found in stillness, gesture, and presence.
