Chigura Tora Cat Japanese Ramen Noodle Bowl – Made in Japan | 虎

✦ Why We Love It

猫と過ごす、ほっとする食卓。
Neko to sugosu, hotto suru shokutaku.
"A comforting table shared with a cat."

The Chigura Tora Japanese Ramen Noodle Bowl brings a little feline personality to the table with an adorable napping tabby curled around its blue-and-white design.

Made in Japan from lightweight porcelain, it is comfortable to handle while remaining practical for everyday meals. And there is one more charming detail waiting inside — as you finish your meal, a sweet cat face appears at the bottom of the bowl.

With a generous 1100ml capacity, there is plenty of room for ramen with broth and toppings, while the versatile shape works equally well for udon, donburi, soups, rice dishes and hearty salads.

✦ A Little Piece of Japan

虎猫 — Tora-neko — Tabby Cat

In Japanese, tora (虎) means tiger, and tora-neko (虎猫) is a name used for a tabby cat, inspired by the distinctive striped markings that resemble those of a tiger.

Cats have a strong presence throughout Japanese everyday culture, appearing in art, stories, ceramics and contemporary design. Here, the sleepy tabby gives the bowl a softer, playful personality — turning an everyday piece of tableware into something with character.

The name Chigura also brings to mind neko chigura, traditional woven cat houses where cats can curl up comfortably — making the resting cat design especially fitting.
