This shiratake (白竹) white bamboo chashaku (matcha scoop) is made in the mizuya (水者) style, with a wide scoop and sturdy handle ideal for scooping larger amounts of matcha.

This style is designed to be used in preparation for a tea ceremony in the mizuya, where it is used to scoop matcha into a large sifter and from there into a natsume or other tea caddy.

Suikaen is headed by Yasaburo Tanimura (谷村弥三郎), a 25th generation chasen maker who has carried on his family's 500 year old tradition and is one of the only 18 remaining chasen masters. These chashaku are made from locally grown bamboo in the small village of Takayama (高山) in northwest Nara prefecture.

Due to the organic nature of bamboo and handmade teaware, there may be slight variations in size, capacity, and appearance.
