Matcha Bowl and Whisk Sets
Starting from scratch? A matcha bowl set pairs a ceramic matcha bowl with a bamboo whisk, or chasen, so everything you need arrives together. It's also one of our most popular Japanese gifts for tea lovers. Already have a bowl? Our Made in Japan Bamboo Matcha Whisk is available on its own.
How to Choose a Matcha Bowl
Most matcha bowls are around 11 to 13 centimetres across, which suits a traditional single serving and is comfortable to hold in two hands. Wide, shallow bowls cool matcha quickly and are traditionally used in summer, while taller bowls keep it warm for longer in winter. The glaze is personal: deep tenmoku makes bright green matcha stand out, while hand-painted Kutani turns your daily bowl into a piece of art.
