Color:Wine There is a lot of variation with tea bowls or Chawans. There are some with a rustic look, some made with the idea of wabi-sabi (roughly meaning embracing imperfection or flawed beauty), some made with a foot, others shallow. This particular type of Chawan is designed to easily whisk Matcha tea with a rounded bottom and taller sides. The size is designed to large enough to whisk tea while being small enough to easily drink directly out of without feeling awkward. Chawans can also be considered and used as rice bowls. The bowl itself is handcrafted in Vermont on a pottery wheel using glaze and clay that is lead-free. The bowl is also dishwasher safe. When preparing the Matcha it’s best to mix the powder with 2 oz. of water and whisk then slowly stir in more water to taste. The bowl holds 8 oz. when full although 4-6 oz. of tea is a good average but it depends on desired strength of flavor. It's best to use water that has cooled slightly from a boil. If you use boiling water directly it can make the tea bitter Lunch Rejuvenation is dedicated to finding and making quality products to help you arrive back from lunch inspired not dog tired.

LEAD FREE & MADE IN THE U.S.A. - BOUGHT A 2ND ONE TODAY!
I bought one of these chawan matcha tea bowls last year and liked it so much, I just bought another one today. Thank you for making a product that is lead free AND to also advertise that info in the product description.As I mentioned to others, if any company's chawan bowls are guaranteed to be lead free, they should include that IMPORTANT info in the product's description. Customers should not have to keep posting the same question over and over again on all of these product's pages, with resellers answering for the product maker. So, because of that I refrain from buying their products, as it raises doubts.It's the perfect size for mixing and sipping my matcha...definitely big enough, so when you whisk, the contents stay in the bowl. This bowl may cost more than some of those other chawan bowls (that don't indicate on the product's page as being lead-free), since I use mine all the time, was willing to pay the extra cost to have the peace of mind that it is indeed lead free. I also like the fact it's made in the USA.Namaste

Beautiful perfection.
It's so beautiful and designed to be perfectly cupped in your hands as you sip the velvety matcha . I am happy that they are made in the USA by artisans in New England and lead free. The glaze forms a beautiful pattern- mine looks like mountains in the evening- so peaceful.It arrived quickly and was packaged protectively. The bowl was worth the price. It provides more than just a bowl for matcha- it provides a peaceful experience when I use it every early morning. I am thoroughly enjoying it. I will probably get a couple more so when friends are over for tea they can enjoy the beauty of the bowl as well as the comfort, revitalization and lift of the ceremonial matcha. Btw. After trying several ceremonial grade products we have all agreed hands down that Jade Leaf organic has absolutely the silkiest, freshest, brightest green, organic, best tasting ceremonial matcha of any one. Worth every penny!

Rejuvenated me!
I received this lovely Matcha Tea Bowl very quickly and could not wait to use it. I did the little ceremony and enjoyed my matcha tea in this beautiful, lead free, perfect to hold bowl and it was great!! Thanks for this lovely product, the care in packaging, and the fast shipment. As a product suggestion, it would be nice to have a Chasen (Match whisk stand) that was not a complete matching piece of pottery but that coordinated with it. LIke in my case you could make it more turquoise to match my turquoise swirls. You asked for suggestions and I thought of this right away. Thanks!

beautiful matcha bowl
Very well made, beautiful matcha bowl. Perfect size. I wanted to get a bowl made in the USA, since many are made in China, and this Vermont made bowl was perfect. A good, fair price for a high quality, hand-thrown bowl. I got the blue bowl and it's a rich, multi-toned glaze. It's very easy to make matcha in this bowl, and it makes a wonderful gift. (Be sure to follow instructions for how to make matcha. You don't want to fill the bowl to the top. I start off by making a wet paste with the matcha, then I add about two ounces of water and make a froth with my matcha whisk. Then continue to add hot water, or milk, until it's the desired strength.) Highly recommend!

Hugh quality handmade product
Chawans are atttactive, versatile, and affordable. Seller (also maker) emailed me that the new batch was 8mm off in size from the prior run and did I want to wait for next run or take two slightly different size chawans. Who does that? A small batch producer who cares about quality, that’s who. I started with two and wife and I liked them so much we ordered four more. Buy these, they will make you feel good for so many reasons.

Matcha Tea Bowl for Matcha Tea Ceremony
I love my Matcha Tea bowl. It looks so nice on my kitchen counter as I have a lot of Asian items and this goes perfectly. I also recommended it to friends...as we are really into Matcha Tea for its health benefits. I gave it 5 stars as it is a five star bowl!

Very Pretty
These bowls are attractive and well made. The only surprising thing was that one bowl was significantly larger than the other, but that's ok, since one is for me and one is for my husband. They were shipped very quickly and packaged well.
