Soil & Spirit: The Art of Japanese Ceramics & Matcha Meditation

Step into a quiet gathering that honors the artistry of Japanese tableware and the ritual of mindful tea.

Curated by Iroha NYC, this experience invites you to explore how vessel and ritual come together to elevate the everyday.

✨ What to Expect:

• Discover the story and philosophy behind handcrafted ceramics, shaped by artists through years of intimate dialogue with clay.

• Select your own vessel and plate a seasonal wagashi (Japanese sweet) created by Annn, exploring the harmony between food, form, and feeling.

• Sip ceremonial-grade matcha by Sorate, then settle into a guided matcha meditation that includes a calming singing bowl practice to reconnect with your breath, body, and senses.

This is an invitation to see with your hands, taste with intention, and rest in the quiet beauty of form, flavor, and presence.

🛍️ Optional: Browse and purchase artisan tableware from Iroha’s collection—rarely available in person.

About Iroha

IROHA was created to bring a sense of joy and meaning to everyday life through the timeless beauty of Japanese arts and crafts.

The deeper we experienced life abroad, the more we came to appreciate the wonder of Japanese craftsmanship—its delicate forms, refined artistry, and the quiet elegance found in imperfection. In Japan, there is a deeply personal relationship between people and their vessels, whether used in daily meals or cherished tea ceremonies. At IROHA, we celebrate this connection by curating handcrafted tableware and art that carry both tradition and soul. Through each piece, we hope to share with New Yorkers and beyond the warmth, beauty, and enduring spirit of Japanese culture.
