Bring tranquility to any ritual with this refined Japanese matcha set made of black bamboo.
The set consists of a hand-carved chasen with a hundred fine teeth (百本立て) and a ceramic holder (chasen-tate), together they form the essence of the Japanese tea ceremony.
Kurotake
Dark bamboo (kurotake) is rarer than white or purple (OKI) varieties and is known for its strength, deep color, and natural sheen. The finely split bamboo teeth create a creamy, silky foam, just like in Japanese chanoyu.

Chasen – Matcha whisk
With 100 carefully split teeth, the black bamboo chasen creates an airy foam and a soft, balanced taste.
Chasen-tate – Wooden or ceramic holder
The holder helps the beater maintain its shape and extends the life of the bamboo. Moreover, the chasen dries evenly, keeping it looking good longer and preventing it from splitting.
Why choose black bamboo?
While white bamboo is light and supple, and purple bamboo is primarily decorative, black bamboo offers the perfect balance between strength and refinement. The color deepens over time, a quiet reminder of the Japanese principle of wabi-sabi: beauty in simplicity and ephemerality. A timeless set for those who want to prepare matcha with mindfulness, quietly, purely, and with reverence for the craft.
