Named after the Japanese word for dawn, the Akebono matcha bowl captures nature’s fleeting beauty through its mesmerising glaze. Each piece reflects yohen - the kiln’s unpredictable transformations - making it truly one of a kind.

Handcrafted by Shinkougama in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, this matcha bowl is thoughtfully made for preparing and enjoying matcha, bringing a sense of quiet elegance to your tea ritual.

As shown in the photos, the glaze pattern will vary from piece to piece. If you have a preference, feel free to leave a note at checkout, and we’ll do our best to accommodate. Otherwise, we’ll select one for you.

Origin

Mino Ware

For over 1,300 years, Mino ware has been at the heart of Japanese ceramic making. Today it produces more than half of all ceramics in Japan, blending time-honoured traditions with modern techniques. What makes Mino ware unique is its diversity - rather than a single style, it encompasses more than 15 distinct types, each officially recognised as a traditional craft.

Maker / Brand

Shinkougama

At Sinkougama, each piece is meticulously handcrafted, ensuring no two are alike. Established in 1895, this family-run studio in Toki City, Gifu, upholds a tradition of excellence. Guided by warmth and authenticity, 5th-generation owner Kazuaki Tanaka and his team create functional, stylish pieces to enrich daily life.
