Thank you for viewing. This is a tea scoop (chashaku) from the successive heads of the Urasenke school. I believe the tea scoop is almost unused. The bamboo container it's in has a crack. Also, the lid is tight, so it's difficult to remove when closed firmly. As it has been stored at home, please make your judgment based on the photos, and refrain from purchasing if you have any concerns. There are no smokers. I had a cat until this summer. Also, please refrain from purchasing if you have any concerns. Thank you. I do not accept price reductions. Furthermore, please be aware that if someone purchases the item while comments are being exchanged, the purchase will take priority.
