Review on Traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony Matcha Bowls Set - Includes Whisk Stand & Starter Kit by Christopher Gotcher

on your screen this chawan might look authentic japanese. however irl, it is nothing like a real thing. it is extremely heavy. the bottom ring is too short to balance such a heavy bowl. if you need a bowl for rice, soup or a simple decoration, this might do the trick. if you are looking for a matcha bowl, this bowl is not it.for matcha lovers - spend a few buck more and buy a better bowl.little things: a whisk shaper is generic. for some reason, the bowl is matte black, while the whisk shaper is very shiny.3 stars for effort and the fact that the set looks OK . from a distance
