Introduction of the Tea Utensil Specialty Store - Kakinuma
Vol. 1: Tea bowls for koicha, a thick matcha tea served in a tea ceremony.
Located near Sensoji Temple in Asakusa in the heart of Tokyo, Kakinuma was established almost 50 years ago and it’s been trusted by many tea ceremony instructors in Tokyo ever since for their tea utensils.
Kakinuma has a wide range of tea utensils including antiques, unique utensils are always founded there. When you visit the Asakusa area, I highly recommend stopping by their store.
In this video clip, Mika Soka Haneishi introduces tea utensils used for tea ceremonies such as chawan (a tea bowl), some containers for matcha powder, and chashaku (a bamboo tea scoop).
