It’s week 07 / 2026
This week, we explore the AGOBAY matcha travel bag: a curated set designed to carry the ritual beyond home. It’s the result of a powerhouse collaboration with a group of our artisans, bringing together handcrafted essentials – from Therese Müller’s porcelain matcha bowl to OGATA’s bamboo utensils and our ceremonial-grade Kyoto matcha – allowing the ritual to continue wherever you are. Inspired by the Japanese ‘azuma bukuro’ and developed with tea master Shinya Sakurai, the padded linen bag is crafted by Niwa Futon in Nagoya. Led by fifth-generation maker Takuya Niwa, the atelier remains one of the few to handcraft futons from start to finish, delighting in age-old processes and a quiet curiosity for new forms. Discover their story and film in our magazine.
