Japanese Tea Set

The Japanese tea ceremony, from its inception, development, and evolution to the present day, is reflected in the tea utensils, marking the transition from “tōgu” (Tang dynasty Chinese ware) to “wamono” (Japanese ware). Through centuries of evolution, the Japanese tea set has acquired its own distinct style.

1. Chawan (Tea Bowl):
The chawan is a vessel used to hold powdered tea. It is categorized based on its production and origin. Typically, plain and elegant chawan are used for thick tea, while chawan adorned with lively patterns of flowers, birds, insects, or fish are used for thin tea. They come in different materials and patterns, evoking diverse interpretations of tea. The chawan serves not only as a vessel for drinking tea but also as an essential element in appreciating its inherent beauty within the tea ceremony.

2. Tea Caddy:
Japanese tea caddies are small and exquisite, often resembling dates. In the past, black lacquerware was the most common material used for tea caddies.

3. Tea Scoop:
The chashaku is a tool used to scoop and transfer tea leaves. Typically made of bamboo, the pointed tip of the chashaku is used for scooping tea. After use, it is wiped clean with a dry cloth instead of washing with water.

4. Chasen (Tea Whisk):
The chasen is a bamboo tool used for whisking tea. Its design varies depending on the type and number of bamboo tines, ranging from as few as 16 to as many as 120. Whisks with fewer and thicker tines are suitable for thick tea, while those with more numerous and finer tines are ideal for thin tea.

5. Other common utensils include teapots, teacups, tea cloths, fans, and more.
