A chawan (茶碗; literally “tea bowl”) is a bowl used for preparing and drinking tea. Many types of chawan are used in East Asian tea ceremonies. The choice of their use depends upon many considerations.

One of my favourite galleries is Goldmark Gallery in Uffington, England.  They recently had a exhibition of Chawans and their web site is well worth visiting.
