Description

The history of the Hishaku in Japan dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), where it was originally used in Japanese gardens for watering plants. Later, it was adapted for use in the tea ceremony as an essential tool. The use of bamboo in tea ceremonies dates back even further, to the 9th century, when it was first introduced from China. Today, the use of bamboo utensils in the tea ceremony is deeply ingrained in Japanese culture.
