This elegant Kyo-yaki hira chawan (flat, summer style matcha bowl) is made in the classic Kohiki (粉引) style. Its flat, wide shape is ideal for use in warmer months where it allows the tea to cool quickly.

Made by Yohei Nakamura (中村与平). Born in 1959, Nakamura-san is a prolific potter, producing hundreds of beautiful and affordable tea ceremony utensils across a range of styles.
