Korean Ceramic Rokurome Matcha Bowl/Chawan
Meet the Korean Ceramic Rokurome Matcha Bowl/Chawan, wheel-thrown by ceramist Hunseong Jang in Icheon, South Korea. This one of a kind matcha bowl shows rokurome (轆轤目) which is subtle spiral marks left by the potter's fingers during the wheel-throwing process. These intentional, organic variations are a prized feature in traditional matcha bowls honoring the handmade nature of the ceramics.
Icheon ceramics have a history spanning at least a thousand years, evolving from supplying the Joseon Dynasty's royal palaces to forming a "ceramic village" that has naturally drawn potters from all over the country.
