Making Handbuilt Chawan

 

The formal Japanese Tea Ceremony (Chanoyu) has had a

profound impact on both the Japanese and world ceramics

since the feudal era in Japan. The making of formal tea

bowls (Chawan) is considered the pinnacle of the art of the

potter in Japan. This six-session class will share two specific

hand-forming techniques for the making of Chawan. It also

will explore the “rules†for desired formal attributes of a

Chawan within the context of real Chanoyu. A discussion of

the formal Chanoyu process will be included, and we will

conclude our classes by sharing Matcha (i.e. ceremony tea)

out of the bowls we have made in a semi-formal Tea

Ceremony in which the class participants get to be both hosts

and guests.
