Chawan – Matcha bowl “Kaeru”: Return to tranquility
The handcrafted chawan “Kaeru” takes its name from the Japanese word for “return.” In Japanese culture , kaeru symbolizes a return to one's origins, to one's center, or to a place of tranquility. The vibrant green glaze evokes moss, fresh leaves, or damp forest landscapes—a feeling of naturalness and grounding that accompanies every matcha preparation.
The fine, textured surface gives the bowl depth and vibrancy, while its clean lines exude tranquility. “Kaeru” invites you to pause in your daily life and repeatedly return to a mindful moment.
Tradition and timeless form
The Chawan “Kaeru” is crafted in a sustainable ceramics workshop in Portugal. Inspired by the traditional shape of Japanese matcha bowls, it combines European craftsmanship with the aesthetics of Japanese tea culture. Each bowl is individually made, resulting in a subtle uniqueness in glaze and surface.
The balanced shape supports the gentle whisking of the matcha and feels comfortable in the hands — ideal for beginners as well as experienced tea lovers.
