Saliu Matcha Bowl - Minamikama
A collection born from silence, craftsmanship, and the quiet depth of handmade work.Each piece is crafted entirely by hand—from kneading the clay to shaping, glazing, and firing. The vessels hold a tranquil beauty that can only emerge from time, touch, and the steady breath of the craftsman.
Nestled in the mountains of Toki City, Gifu Prefecture, Minami-gama is a small workshop run by traditional craftsman Takumi Kudo and his wife Yukie.
Together, they carry out every step of pottery-making themselves:
-
Kneading and preparing the clay
-
Molding and shaping
-
Mixing and brushing glazes
-
Painting and firing
Their vessels embody a quiet precision, with every detail infused with the couple’s sensibility and daily devotion to their craft.
