About this craft
The chasen (bamboo whisk) is a key tool in Japanese tea ceremony (chanoyu), used to whisk matcha powder into smooth foam. Traditional whisks are hand-carved by craftspeople, often in regions like Takayama (Gifu). This 100-prong whisk requires skill to use properly and improves with age.
Description
100-prong bamboo matcha whisk set with scoop and straightener, cherry-blossom design
After whisking, rinse whisk gently under cool running water and stand upright to air-dry. Do not soak. Once weekly, soak whisk in hot water for 5–10 minutes to soften bamboo and restore shape; use ceramic straightener to reshape if needed. Oil-coated bamboo is durable but will lighten over time. Hand-wash scoop and straightener. Store in cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
