Where blossoms bloom and birds sing.
Handcrafted in Japan, the Kyoto Ume Tori Chawan captures one of the most beloved scenes in Japanese art — delicate plum blossoms in bloom and songbirds resting among the branches.
Each bowl is individually hand-painted with remarkable attention to detail. Soft pink blossoms unfold across the surface while graceful birds bring life and movement to the design. Fine gold accents add depth and elegance, creating a piece that feels both timeless and luxurious.
The gently curved shape sits comfortably in the hands and provides ample room for whisking matcha into a smooth, creamy froth. Whether used for daily tea rituals or displayed as part of a treasured collection, this bowl brings the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship into every moment.
No two pieces are exactly alike, making each bowl a unique work of art.

The Story Behind This Piece
In Japanese culture, plum blossoms (ume) are among the first flowers to bloom after winter, symbolizing resilience, renewal, and the arrival of spring. Birds appearing among flowering branches are a classic theme in Japanese painting and ceramics, representing harmony between nature and the changing seasons.
The Kyoto Ume Tori Chawan brings this timeless imagery into the tea ritual, transforming every bowl of matcha into a moment of reflection and appreciation.
