Kiyomizuyaki ware -Ao-mishima Kiyomizu-yaki Chawan
Description
This Kiyomizu-yaki chawan (matcha bowl) has a classic wan-nari shape and is decorated in a unique style called ao-mishima (青三島). In contrast to the traditional mishima style which employs white slip to highlight stamped designs, here a stylish blue is used instead to fill in the stamped flowers. The base glaze underneath is a textured matte black.
This chawan was made by Igura Toshiya (井栗敏也) of Toshiya Kiln (敏也窯). Born in 1962, Igura-san opened his own kiln in 1984 and has since been known for his unique spins on classic styles.

Storage Tips:
Matcha is super delicate, and should be stored airtight in cool, dry place and away from light to keep optimal freshness. We kindly ask you not to store in transparent containers.
Opened matcha should be used within 1 month. Unopened matcha can be kept in the fridge for 6 months. Anything beyond that time frame risks matcha deterioration in quality and taste.
