Moya Matcha - Botan Bowl

Matchawan Botan with a spout The Botan matchawan is a traditional cup for preparing matcha. Handy spout will help you not to spill the tea. Its irregular walls make it fit perfectly in the hand. The intense colour of the teapot is eye-catching and blends beautifully with the green shades of the matcha. The bowl’s colour inspired us to name it ‘Botan’, which means peony in Japanese. In this specific culture, the beauty, elegance and resilience of the peony have earned it the title of queen of flowers. In Japan in the 18th century, the peony was a widespread symbol in crafts, commonly used as a decorative element in tapestries, paintings, ceramics and kimonos. It is often used in Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arranging.
