Tea bowls, or chawan- when used in Japanese Chanoyu tea ceremony, are meant to hold whisked green tea called matcha. After whisking the green tea powder with hot water, drink matcha directly from the bowl.
Wood-firing is a time and labor-intensive process that takes days and sometimes weeks to complete. The results vary greatly and many pieces do not survive the firing process. However, the pots that make the cut invariably feature dynamic coloration from the fire and ash that coats the unglazed surface. Wood-fired pieces should be handled with care and only washed with warm water to allow a patina to develop and season the interior clay surface.
