Overview
This matcha bowl was created by mixing clay and ashes of twigs and leaves of buckwheat from Tokushima. The color of this bowl comes from the buckwheat ashes, and each piece has different "expression" in its color and shape. Color - Kogaregasumi 焦霞 (Autumn Ember) A dusky blend of earthy browns, faded greens, and charcoal black—like smoke from a dying fire in the depths of an autumn mountain.The name also echoes the word "longing" ("kogareru" in Japanese), evoking the warmth and fleeting beauty of a passing season. The color names go beyond the colors themselves—they are inspired by the scenery, feelings, and nature of Tokushima that give life to each vessel. Ceramic artist Emi Nakagawa studied ceramic production in Kyoto and uses the Kiyomizu-yaki tradition with clay from Shigaraki, Shiga.
