Thank you for looking.

This is a tea scoop used in the Japanese tea ceremony. ^ ^
It has a beautiful design with a lacquered back. ^ ^

This is from my mother's collection, who has been teaching tea ceremony for about 50 years. ^ ^

As this is an old item, I have marked it as slightly scratched or dirty just in case. ^ ^

The box has age-related damage and dirt, so please refer to the photos before considering. ^ ^

Thank you. ^ ^
