Each ORIGAMI Matcha Bowl was crafted in Mino Japan, a city well-known for its ceramic craftsmanship for over 400 years. The makers of ORIGAMI designed this smaller bowl with a round bottom, suitable for spotting and kneading individual servings of matcha to get the smooth foam. The shape can also allow small amounts of matcha to be kneaded for matcha lattes. It also pairs well with the ORIGAMI matcha bowl as a serving vessel. The rounded shape helps contain the fine foam, making it hard to spill, and at the same time, the shape makes it easy to hold. The spout on the lip ensures matcha can be smoothly poured into your preferred drinking vessel. Note - 'kneading' means the stirring of matcha Specifications: Dimensions: Ф95×H55mm Capacity: 230ml Material: Porcelain Made in Japan Care Instructions: Heat resistant up to 120℃, microwave and dishwasher safe Please be aware that, due to the inherent properties of porcelain and the production conditions, the surface may exhibit subtle irregularities or small pits, which can vary based on the colour and production period.
