A hand-painted Kyoto tea bowl inspired by nature's symbols of prosperity and good fortune.
Handcrafted and hand-painted in Japan, this elegant tea bowl features vibrant clusters of crimson fortune berries surrounded by delicate blossoms and flowing foliage, accented with touches of gold. Inspired by traditional Japanese seasonal motifs, the design celebrates abundance, resilience, and the beauty of nature.
Its wide, balanced form is ideal for preparing ceremonial-grade matcha, allowing the bamboo whisk to move freely and create a smooth, velvety foam. The warm ivory glaze beautifully frames the intricate artwork, making each bowl as striking on display as it is in use.
Presented in a traditional wooden collector's box, the Kyoto Fortune Berry Chawan is a timeless piece of Japanese craftsmanship—created to elevate everyday tea moments into meaningful rituals.
The Story Behind the Design
The red berries depicted on this chawan are inspired by Nanten, a cherished plant in Japanese culture that has long been associated with good fortune, protection, and prosperity. Often found in traditional gardens and artwork, Nanten symbolizes resilience through the changing seasons.
Combined with delicate blossoms and hand-painted gold accents, this design captures the refined elegance of Kyoto's artistic heritage.
