Japanese Shigaraki-ware Tidal Wave Bowl

Tidal Wave collection, matching tumbler cups available.

Soft curves and a texture that fits comfortably in the hand. Its unique style is unique to Shigaraki. Shigaraki ware originates from Shigaraki Town in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. Renowned as one of Japan’s six oldest kilns, it boasts a rich history that spans over 1,260 years. We travel to Japan, East Asia and other countries to source and handpick the most unique and rare hand made and vintage pieces.

Hechimon is a Shigaraki craftsman's word signifying "windswept things". The unique forms of nature and the individuality of each person. It loosely translates to "unusual things" or "quirky objects," reflecting its emphasis on irregularity, natural beauty, and wabi-sabi aesthetics.
