This is a tea scoop (chashaku) with a diagonal joint made of white ivory and young black bamboo. 《Because of the beautiful "spots" and "grooves," I made it into a jointed tea scoop.》 "Material selection → Part shaping → Gluing → Overall shaping → Finishing polish" It took about 3 days. But it's priced at the Mercari price (^_^; We would be grateful if you would consider purchasing it at this opportunity. The tea scoop's tip is Rikyū style. The bamboo tube lid is shaped like the "White Cloud Lid" named by a certain monk. The black bamboo was carefully selected from a long-established bamboo material shop in Naniwa Teramachi.
