Why Choose This Set

Edo-glass (Edo kiriko) refers to the traditional glassmaking craft associated with Tokyo, and the Ryodama form — rounded, wide, and shallow — is designed specifically for matcha preparation. Heat-resistant glass means you can pour water at proper brewing temperature (70–80°C) without risk, and the transparent walls let you see the matcha color, the foam development, and the final bowl in a way that ceramic chawan simply can't offer. It's a different kind of matcha experience, and for visual learners and aesthetes, it's revelatory.

How to Use

Warm the bowl with a splash of hot water and discard before brewing. Sift 2–3 grams of matcha into the dry bowl, add 70–80ml of water at around 75°C, and whisk with a chasen until foam forms. The glass conducts heat, so the bowl will feel warm in your hands — grip by the base or sides as you drink. Hand wash only; avoid sudden temperature changes (do not place a hot bowl into cold water).

Perfect for: Visual matcha enthusiasts who love watching the process, those who want to show off proper matcha technique to guests, photography-minded tea drinkers, and anyone building a matcha setup that's both functional and beautiful.
