Emui × YUNOMI / YOIN (余韻) Matcha Pouring Bowl (Handmade Ceramic / 桐箱入りユノミオリジナル)

A handmade matcha pouring bowl from Emui (笑無為) by ceramic artist Emi Nakagawa.

Named YOIN (余韻) — meaning “lingering resonance” or “afterglow” — this piece reflects the quiet feeling that remains after a moment of stillness. Much like the lingering warmth of tea, YOIN embodies subtle beauty, calm presence, and the gentle rhythm of intentional daily rituals.

Rooted in the tradition of Kiyomizu-yaki — a historic ceramic style from Kyoto — she works with clay sourced from Shigaraki, Shiga, known for its warm, natural texture and depth.

The bronze-glazed variation is fired to create a deep, charred surface with subtle metallic undertones. Rich in texture and atmosphere, the finish evokes the quiet intensity of glowing embers fading into darkness.

A contrasting light variation is also available, offering a softer and more serene expression of the same form. Rather than a pure white, the glaze reveals delicate hints of blue and pink depending on the light — creating a subtle iridescence and quiet depth within its calm appearance.

Unlike a standard matcha bowl, this piece features a carefully formed spout, allowing for smooth, precise pouring. Ideal for preparing matcha for lattes or sharing, it brings both functionality and elegance to the tea-making process.

Balanced and comfortable in the hand, the form offers stability while maintaining a refined, understated presence.

Perfect for matcha, whether enjoyed traditionally or as a latte, this versatile bowl elevates everyday rituals into something more intentional.

The base is stamped with the YUNOMI mark.
Subtle yet distinctive, this discreet signature adds a quiet sense of exclusivity to each piece.

Presented in a paulownia wooden box, it also makes a thoughtful and refined gift.

About the Artist

Emi Nakagawa hails from Miyoshi Village in Tokushima and has been creating ceramics by hand since 2020 after studying Kiyomizu-Yaki production in Kyoto. She teaches and creates crafts at a studio and school in Tokyo and is building her own studio in Tokushima. Primarily using electric powered kilns, she is still exploring her artistic styles with manipulation of clays, glazes, and firing techniques. 

Her pottery brand, Emui (笑無為), reflects a philosophy of quiet joy and natural simplicity. Guided by the belief in making “pottery that subtly complements your heart,” Emi creates pieces that bring warmth and comfort — shaped by the rustic texture of clay, forms that rest naturally in the hand, and the quiet, peaceful time she spends in the natural landscapes of Tokushima.
