When choosing your tableware, think about the overall style and mood you want to create.
If you're deciding between green and pink, consider the atmosphere each color brings to the table. Green ceramic rice bowls offer a refreshing, natural feel, perfect for a calm and earthy setting. Pink, on the other hand, adds a soft, cheerful touch, ideal for creating a warm and inviting space. For a classic "rice and bowl" experience, green pairs beautifully with dishes rich in vegetables or traditional flavors, while pink complements lighter, festive meals.
In the end, the best choice depends on whether you want your table to feel grounded and serene, vibrant and joyful—or simply to match your personal taste.

In Japan, it’s pretty common to see a set of five ceramic rice bowls , usually for two parents and three kids. It’s all about coming together around the table as a family.
But honestly, there’s no hard rule here!
You can totally pick the number of Japanese bowls that fits your lifestyle. A pair of chawan makes a perfect choice for couples, while singles might prefer a smaller, curated set.
And if you’ve got a bigger family or love hosting, having a few extra bowls on hand makes sure everyone can enjoy a beautiful rice & bowl experience. Just choose what feels right for you and the moments you want to create!

Because it is.
In Japan, a ceramic rice bowl isn’t just something to eat out of; it’s a little reminder to slow down and appreciate the moment.
Every time you pick one up, you're holding a piece of history and craftsmanship that’s been passed down for generations.
Choosing a handmade bowl isn’t just about finding something that works; it’s about adding a bit of real beauty and tradition to your everyday meals. Even the simplest “rice & bowl” moment can feel a little more special when you do.
