£58.00Bring the elegance of Kyoto craftsmanship to your table with this Handmade Japanese Gion Sakura Plum-Shaped Bowl, expertly crafted by Tousen Kiln in Kyoto, Japan. Inspired by the graceful beauty of Gion's weeping cherry blossoms, this handcrafted bowl features a softly scalloped plum-shaped silhouette adorned with delicate cascading sakura, capturing the peaceful atmosphere of Kyoto in spring. Each piece reflects the refined artistry of authentic Kiyomizu Ware (Kyo-yaki).
Founded in the early Meiji era, Tousen Kiln began as a Kiyomizu ware wholesaler before establishing its own kiln to create handcrafted ceramics. Drawing on the traditional clay and glazes of Kyoto's Kiyomizu ware, each piece embodies generations of Japanese ceramic craftsmanship while embracing refined, contemporary design.
Ideal for serving Japanese side dishes, desserts, fruit, snacks or seasonal delicacies, this versatile bowl brings both beauty and functionality to everyday dining. Every bowl is individually handcrafted, making each piece unique with subtle variations in glaze, colour and hand-painted decoration that celebrate the authentic character of Japanese pottery.
Whether enjoyed as part of your daily tableware collection or displayed as a decorative piece, this elegant bowl brings the timeless beauty of Kyoto's sakura season into your home.
