Shiro-Tokusa (白十草), meaning white tokusa, the stripe pattern named after the horsetail plant. A spouted matcha bowl, striped down the outside.
The Shiro-Tokusa Katakuchi is a katakuchi (片口), a matcha bowl with a pouring lip. A speckled grey-green glaze covers it, with white stripes running down the outside from just below the rim to the foot, and white strokes swirling around the inside. The rim is gently wavy, and the foot is bare brown clay. At 560 ml it is roomy: whisk matcha in it, then pour it into cups to share, or over milk for a matcha latte.
Mino ware (美濃焼, Mino-yaki) comes from the Gifu Prefecture region and is the most widely produced ceramic in Japan, known for the sheer variety of its glazes.
Made in Mino, Gifu Prefecture, Japan.

Each piece is made by hand, so the glaze on yours will differ from the photograph. That variation is the character of the piece, not a flaw.
