About this workshopThe chashaku plays an important role in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony. It is a delicate spoon made of bamboo, used to put green tea powder (matcha) in a tea bowl (chawan). During this workshop you will make your own chashaku from beautiful Japanese bamboo. Attendees will learn the function and history of the chashaku in relation to the Japanese tea ceremony. The different types of bamboo that are used during the workshop will also be discussed. Just like every tea master who makes his own chashaku can choose to give it his own signature, attendees can choose their own finish. There are examples to copy from, but attendees can also choose to create their own version. After the workshop there is the possibility to buy Japanese bamboo sticks.About Hans PillenIn 1976, Hans came into contact with the world of the tea ceremony when he first visited Japan. He was deeply moved by the tranquil world and the countless artistic expressions. When he returned to the Netherlands he started to make chawan. Since 2008, Hans has also been making chashaku, for which he followed several workshops in Japan. In April 2023, he had a solo exhibition of chawan and chashaku in Kyoto. His chawan and chashaku are used by tea masters all over the world. In June 2015, he received his chashaku maker name “蘭芳” (Ranpo) from his master Miyaha Shoho.Hans Pillen
