Japanese Bowls
Shop Japanese bowls for every meal, made by Mino ware and Kutani ware potters. Our range covers rice bowls and donburi, ramen bowls like the Mino Ware Secret Garden Ramen Bowl, small side dish bowls from $8, and matcha bowls for whisking tea.
Japanese bowls are designed to be lifted and held in one hand, so they are lighter and better balanced than most Western bowls. Mino ware from Gifu Prefecture is sturdy enough for daily meals, while hand-painted Kutani ware bowls make a special gift.
Shop by type: Japanese rice bowls or matcha bowls, or set the table with Japanese plates. Read What Is Mino Ware? to learn more about everyday Japanese ceramics. Shipping is free Australia-wide on orders over $100.

Japanese meals are built from several small dishes, which is where the Mino Ware Side Dish Collection and the Kaga Yuzen Okonomi Bowl earn their place.
