Akane 茜 Matcha Set – Twilight in Crimson Glaze
Named after the Japanese word Akane (茜), meaning “deep red” or “madder red,” this set evokes the warm, fleeting glow of twilight — a time cherished in Japanese culture for its beauty and stillness. With its vivid crimson glaze fading into soft ivory, the Akane Matcha Set brings depth, elegance, and a sense of quiet drama to your tea ritual.
The hand-glazed ceramic bowl and whisk holder transition from a radiant crimson into soft ivory, inspired by the Japanese sky just before nightfall. It's a design that feels both modern and rooted — minimal yet expressive. This blend of vivid color and simple form reflects wabi-sabi (侘寂), the Japanese philosophy of embracing imperfection and impermanence.
Crafted for everyday ritual or meaningful gifting, each piece in the set is designed with intention. The whisk, made from a single piece of natural bamboo, creates a creamy froth with ease. The curved scoop offers just the right measure of matcha, while the whisk holder helps maintain its shape for long-lasting use.
Whether used at dawn or dusk, in silence or shared company, Akane is more than a tea set — it’s a moment of pause in your day.
