Fujiki Denshiro: Chasaji, Sakura Bark Tea Scoop - Hyotan
Handmade tea scoop or Chasaji
Hyotan (Gourd) shaped tea scoop made from sakura tree bark with an embedded sakura design. Each item is handmade and unique so they may differ slightly from the images shown.
The art of Kabazaiku was initiated by samurai warriors as a supplementary work task approximately 220 years ago during the Temmei Era. This craftsmanship was adopted by the townspeople of Kakunodate (Akita Prefecture) and continues to be perfected in an environment rich in culture. Natural cherry bark breathes. It handles moisture well. Its tough surface makes Kabazaiku craft-ware suitable for everyday use. An intricate relationship exists between cherry bark, wisdom, and the devotion of skilled craftsmen that brings about a special harmony found in unique and beautiful kabazaiku products.
Fujiki Denshiro was established in 1851 as a kabazaiku wholesaler and transformed into the premier kabazaiku manufacturing studio by the late 6th generation owner Koichi Fujiki.
