Shinkirō 蜃気楼 Matcha Set

Shinkirō 蜃気楼 Matcha Set – Mirage at Daybreak

Like a shimmer on the horizon at dawn, the Shinkirō (蜃気楼, “mirage”) Matcha Set captures the ethereal beauty of a morning mist rising from the sea. At its heart lies a porcelain chawan, yohen-glazed in indigo and black that flows across the surface like shifting vapour—no two bowls ever the same, each a fleeting impression of a mirage just out of reach.

This six-piece set reflects the full arc of the matcha ritual, from preparation to care. A fine-mesh sieve lifts and softens the tea with air; a curved bamboo scoop measures the perfect portion; a chasen brings the froth to life. The matching holder cradles the whisk between sessions, while a delicate brush keeps every tool in balance.

Whether savoured alone in the hush of morning or shared with quiet company at dusk, Shinkirō transforms the simple act of making tea into a moment of calm clarity—where breath, movement, and flavour converge like a vision in mist.
