Thank you for viewing! This is a brand new, unused matcha set of 4 items. This handmade ceramic matcha set of 4 perfectly blends the tradition of the tea ceremony with the cuteness of cats! The cat patterns, drawn with delicate brushstrokes, are carefully crafted over time, and each one exudes a "sense of time." The cats drawn by the artisans are not just patterns, but have a presence that feels "alive." The teabowl features a cat curiously looking around, the chasen stand has a cat leisurely resting, and the matcha spoon has a cat playing with its tiny claws – each figure has a spirit, and just looking at them soothes the heart. When you touch them with your fingers, you can feel the slightly raised texture of the underglaze brushstrokes. This is proof of being handmade, and it embodies the "warmth of people" that cannot be replicated by machines. The more you use them, the more familiar you become with the texture, and the "bond" with the tea utensils deepens. The glaze color is warm and calming, and it perfectly complements the green of the matcha, further enhancing the beauty of the whisked matcha. The chasen stand has a stable feel and can be used as an interior decoration just by placing the chasen on it. The matcha bowl has the perfect depth and size, balancing the ease of whisking and drinking. The matcha spoon has a moderate weight and is designed to accurately measure the amount of matcha. The chasen holder protects the bristles of the chasen and helps it last longer. This matcha set of 4 can be used by a wide range of people, from beginners to advanced practitioners of the tea ceremony. It is perfect for use during your daily relaxation time, as a souvenir for special occasions, or as a gift for someone special. #matchabowl #matchaset #teaceremonyutensils #teaceremonyset
