Yu-Chabako Black & Fireworks Matcha Tea Set
Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
Everything you need for a Japanese tea ceremony in one beautiful box. The Yu-Chabako series is a luxurious matcha tea set that elegantly integrates traditional Yamanaka lacquerware craftsmanship with modern versatility.
This set includes a matcha bowl chawan, a natsume (matcha container), a chashaku (tea scoop), a round plate, a matcha whisk, a matcha whisk holder, a small furoshiki cloth, and a decorative paulownia wood box. The lid of the box doubles as a tray, marked with the positions of each tea ceremony item. Black with metallic patterns, the box is beautiful even when not in use.
The chawan is made of smooth Japanese zelkova wood. Its rich black lacquer beautifully contrasts with the green of matcha while still allowing the wood’s natural grain to show through subtly. Pleasing to the touch, with gentle curves designed to cradle the fingers, this is a tea bowl you’ll want to reach for again and again.
Light, compact, and conveniently portable, this tea set allows for easy preparation of matcha in any of your favorite places, including outdoors on a fine day. The natsume includes an inner plastic lid to prevent spillage of matcha powder, even when in motion. The matcha whisk comes (and is best stored) separately from the box to help it hold its shape, but it can be inserted into the matcha whisk holder for easy transport.
Highly recommended for those new to preparing matcha, those looking to assemble a complete matcha set easily, and those who want a set that's easy to carry so they can enjoy matcha anywhere.
This would also make a very special gift for a tea ceremony beginner or a Japanese culture enthusiast.
