Natsume - Naturträ lakierad teskrin (Natsume) med kornets naturliga rytm. - Trä, lack

Good condition.

Description：
This natsume is a wooden tea caddy used in the Japanese tea ceremony for holding powdered green tea. It is crafted from natural wood, likely zelkova or keyaki, finished with a smooth polish that highlights the grain’s natural rhythm. The surface reveals concentric patterns of warm reddish-brown tones, with alternating light and dark bands that flow seamlessly across the rounded form. The lid fits with gentle precision, maintaining the vessel’s soft silhouette and tactile harmony.
Unlike the black lacquer and gold maki-e natsume used for formal gatherings, this piece embodies the wabi-cha aesthetic—quiet, natural, and modest in its beauty. The wood’s living texture and the warmth of its color express a closeness to nature, making it suitable for relaxed, rustic tea gatherings, especially in spring or early autumn. The lack of ornamentation allows the material itself to speak, emphasizing simplicity, humility, and the subtle refinement prized in Japanese tea culture.
