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 the artisans of Chikumeido, a long-established Takayama tea-whisk workshop. 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.
Made from smoked bamboo (susutake) — bamboo aged over years in farmhouse rafters, prized for its deep amber tone.
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.
