Batabata-cha Bamboo Tea Whisk (Chasen) — Takayama Chasen by Kubo SabunTakayama in Ikoma, Nara Prefecture, has been the home of the Japanese tea whisk (chasen) for roughly five centuries, and to this day Takayama makes the overwhelming majority of all chasen used in Japan.

Takayama in Ikoma, Nara Prefecture, has been the home of the Japanese tea whisk (chasen) for roughly five centuries, and to this day Takayama makes the overwhelming majority of all chasen used in Japan. The craft has been handed down from master to apprentice since the Muromachi era.

This chasen is hand-carved by Kubo Sabun, a master tea-whisk maker (chasen-shi) of the long-established Chikumeido workshop, working in the centuries-old Takayama tradition. Each whisk is shaped from a single length of bamboo through a long sequence of hand steps — splitting the bamboo into fine tines, thinning and curving each tine, and binding them with thread — work that cannot be reproduced by machine.

This whisk is made for Batabata-cha (Toyama regional tea) — a regional Japanese tea tradition with its own way of whisking.

Care: rinse the whisk in warm water before and after use, whisk briefly in clean water to relax the tines, then stand it on a whisk holder (kusenaoshi) to dry and keep its shape. Do not use detergent or a dishwasher, and avoid prolonged soaking.

Better than other flimsy trays
Color: Black, Size: Rectangle, Color: Black, Size: Rectangle
I got this to replace another flimsy valet tray I got as a gift. This one is way more sturdier, looks nicer, bigger, and has a nice feel.

Looks great, doesn't hold much so measure carefully
Color: Gray, Size: Rectangle
I got this organizer for my husband to keep his stuff by the door. While it's a little smaller than I'd hoped, it looks great in the entryway. It's super easy to snap together, but feels like the material could be damaged easily if you're not careful. He is able to store his keys, wallet, and sunglasses in it, and throws hit hat on top. Overall we are really happy with it.

Perfect
Color: Blue, Size: Square
Just what I needed. The size is perfect as I didn’t want anything too large to place my watches and other accessories inside near the corner of my desk. Its size is essentially 7x7, and the design is sleek compared to other organizer holders. I got the color in blue and it looks stunning with the rest of my setup. I’m unsure about other reviewers, but mine came safely and the leather walls are decently thick, so it’s not too flimsy when buttoned together which holds very securely. There are hole spaces at the bottom corners once assembled, so if you have super small items such as beads or really small jewelry, they could potentially fall out, but most of my items are large enough that won’t be of concern. If you have a wire charger near by, the holes could be used to charge your smartphone inside, which has its own practical usage. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on a lookout for a sleek but compact organizer holder, and I personally will consider getting another one in the future for myself for other household belongings.

very happy with my purchase
Color: Brown-F, Color: Brown-F
The quality and craftsmanship of this tray are amazing! I bought it mainly for jewelry photography, and the results turned out even better than I expected ✨ The matte finish is exactly what I needed because it doesn’t reflect light, which makes photographing jewelry and pearls so much easier and gives the photos a much more elevated look 📸 I took these photos at night under white lighting, and I’m honestly so happy with how they turned out. The background looks clean, soft, and aesthetic. Sharing some of my photos here for reference — highly recommend!
