Vintage Japanese Chado Brass Tea Ceremony Ash Utensils Set (灰道具: Haidogu), Late Showa 1966-1989 | SKU: 26J-0335

A compact set of brass tea ceremony ash utensils with varied scoop forms, presented in a patterned storage box.

This vintage Japanese set comprises four brass utensils associated with tea ceremony ash work, each formed with a long handle and a distinct working end. The group includes two broader oval scoops in graduated sizes, one narrower curved scoop, and one flat oval tool with an offset bent handle. Their restrained silhouettes and warm, aged brass surfaces give the set a quiet sculptural presence while reflecting the functional elegance of tea utensils made for the hearth and brazier setting.

Today, this set makes a thoughtful addition to a tea utensil collection, a study display on Japanese ceremonial arts, or a refined shelf arrangement alongside other metalwork and chado objects. The original patterned box adds period character and keeps the pieces together for presentation or storage.

A quietly elegant set of vintage Japanese tea utensils, appreciated for its understated form, aged brass character, and connection to tea ceremony practice.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer vintage pieces that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
