Japanese Stoneware Bowl – Badarai

Discover a masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship with this stoneware bowl, an authentic piece steeped in history and tradition. Measuring 11 cm in diameter and 6 cm in height, its “Badarai” (盥形) shape is particularly prized for its low, flared lines, evoking the silhouette of a shallow basin. This unique form, both stable and elegant, offers a serene and calming tasting experience.

The bowl is covered with a satin brown glaze, speckled with black. This matte, velvety finish, dotted with subtle dark spots, gives the piece a distinct depth and character. The speckles, far from being imperfections, are a testament to artisanal firing, making each bowl a unique work of art.

The Glistening Renaissance of 24k Gold Kintsugi

Once broken, this bowl was magnificently resurrected through the ancient technique of kintsugi. Every fracture was meticulously repaired and enhanced with pure 24k gold, transforming its imperfections into a network of luminous lines that bear witness to its history and resilience.

More than just a simple object, this bowl is a unique and perfectly functional work of art. It is ready to be reused to enrich your tasting moments, combining the beauty of tradition with the story of a rebirth.
