Cultural Notes

Chawan

In Japan, ceramic rice bowls are traditionally known as chawan, a term that literally means “tea bowl.”
Curiously, while the word combines cha (茶, tea) and wan (椀, bowl), it has long been embraced as the standard term for bowls used to serve rice in everyday Japanese dining.

Featured Focus

The Spirit of Sakura

Honoring life’s fleeting seasons and lasting emotions

In Japanese culture, sakura symbolizes the transience of life, its delicate blossoms a poignant reminder to savor each passing season and moment.
The tradition of hanami (花見), gathering beneath blooming cherry trees to admire their fleeting beauty, celebrates both the joy of now and the tenderness of change.
That same spirit lives on in the Sakura bowl, a quiet tribute to life’s impermanence, expressed through timeless craftsmanship.
