Hand Carved Chawan

Chawan by ceramist Simon Mancha, born in 1987 in Guilherand Granges, Ardèche, France, who established his workshop in his ancestral land.

This tea bowl (chawan), ideal for matcha or loose leaf tea, was hand-carved using the "Tama Zukuri" and "Kurinuki" techniques from locally sourced sandstone clay, without the use of a potter's wheel. It is glazed with minerals that Simon Monaha harvested and ground by hand. The bowl is then fired at a high temperature of 1280°C. All products are food-safe and watertight, ideal for daily use.
