Summer promotions and news in the Kitsimono webshop instead of Black friday!

Sale!

If we started with the novelties, we could also say black matcha day instead of black friday, but that would not be true either. But let’s start at the beginning. Let’s look at the promotions! One or the other promotion is quite favorable and 100% favorable for the buyers and since these are exceptionally the more expensive and unique pieces, it is worth looking at it because we only hold the promotions until about school start! Not after that. You have some of months to reach into the pottery offered with up to 50% off and save some money.

 News! – The liveliness of matcha tea and the cult of black:

Our novelties are currently favorable for lovers of matcha tea and lovers and cultivators of the Japanese tea ceremony (and of course for those who now want to try making matcha tea or are just looking for someone with such a gift). These novelties are based on the black color of the special Japanese cultural attitude of the so-called around the concept of “kuro”. The so-called Kuro’s attitude has a very pleasant implication that the green of matcha tea lives on it most aesthetically. The aesthetics of tea and the enjoyment value of Japanese tea can be enhanced visually and nothing is more pleasant than responding to these possibilities with ceramics – with artefacts from one of the indispensable branches of art in Asian tea culture!

It is now well known that there are not only powdered green teas of Japanese origin. China also has a history of growing and producing matcha raw material. This classic powdered green tea differs from the Japanese matcha world in that it comes from China. Its characteristic intense green color and sweet taste are popular – due to the high levels of chlorophyll and amino acids. The rich taste of matcha is basically enjoyable as a tea in two ways. It can be made into usucha (dilute tea) koicha (thicker tea).

What is this “Buddhist flow” thing?

“THE HEART OF ASIA”

We targeted the island nation of Asia, referred to as the heart of Asia, and set out to see if they work in Asian reality in the same way as on our workshop shelves, or rather put it visually to test what we see our chawanas as they are or really are as they are. Without the initiation of an art-savvy audience, we pushed down a performance concept that started with the idea of a Buddhist story. The task (the concept) was to pick up the carefully selected teacups and take them from the workshop to many points in Taiwan and exposing them to the selected places …
