•Advice On Use
Of the tea ceremony utensils, the chasen is the most frequently used and important. Because they scratch and bend easily, please handle them with care.
As the bamboo is an unprocessed material, it can break and become moldy. After washing the chasen, dry it completely and store it in a cool, airated place to ensure its long life.
