Premium Goma Bamboo Chashaku with Natural Shimi Markings | Limited Stock

This chashaku is crafted from goma bamboo, a naturally speckled bamboo prized in Japanese tea utensils for its unique “keshiki,” or natural scenery.
The bamboo features distinct natural markings—known as shimi—which form organically over time and are highly valued in tea aesthetics. These markings make each piece truly one-of-a-kind.

Carefully hand-carved by a traditional tea utensil artisan, this chashaku combines goma speckles with beautiful shimi patterns, creating a warm, organic texture that cannot be replicated. It brings both elegance and character to the preparation of matcha.

Please note:
This item is offered at a premium price due to its limited availability.
We are selling from our remaining stock only, and no additional pieces of this type can be restocked.

A special piece for collectors and practitioners who appreciate the natural “scenery” and wabi-sabi beauty of traditional bamboo tea utensils.
