【Store Closing Sale】Hand-carved Young Black Bamboo Sasa-no-ha Tea Scoop, Short Size (Boxed, with Silk Pouch)

I will diligently and honestly continue to craft this item until my materials, energy, and spirit are exhausted (approaching the finish line).

I have decided to use up the materials left by my predecessors and witness the end of our family business, offering this item without regard for profit.

A carver has made a bamboo leaf tea scoop from black bamboo.
This is young black bamboo carefully selected from a bamboo supplier in Naniwa-dera Machi.
Hand-carved bamboo leaf tea scoop.

Tea ceremony utensils require materials, tools, and skills. It is currently difficult to find suitable materials for tea scoops and to pass down the techniques for making them.
Please consider purchasing this item while you have the chance.

This is a reproduction of a short bamboo leaf shaped tea scoop.

The bamboo tube lid was named White Cloud Lid by a certain Buddhist monk.
The black bamboo for the tube is also carefully selected material from a long-established bamboo supplier in Naniwa-dera Machi.
This is a sale item and does not include a paulownia wood box.
The tea scoop itself is made by the fourth-generation carver, Kōseki (direct from the workshop).

Tea scoop approximately 171mm x 11mm (tip width)

Delivered in a black bamboo tube.
