Thank you for viewing. This is a bamboo ladle (hishaku), a tea ceremony utensil. It is a special selection from "Suikoen" in Takayama, Ikoma City, Nara Prefecture, which is famous for its bamboo crafts. This item has a refreshing and beautiful appearance, carefully crafted from a single piece of bamboo. It has been carefully stored in its wrapping paper, so the bamboo's surface is in very beautiful condition. 【Details】 • Item Name: Special Selection Ladle (Gohishaku) • Origin/Workshop: Yamato Takayama Suikoen • Material: Bamboo • Accessories: Paper wrapping, outer box
