Lacquerware Chabitsu #1
A chabitsu (or chahitsu) is a short, cylindrical, lidded container, in which a set of sencha (green leaf tea) tea utensils are stored. The lid can also be used as a tray. Traditionally, every Japanese household has a chabitsu, right next to the chabudai (low dining table). Alas, the chabitsu is rapidly disappearing due to the popularity of ready-made tea sold in plastic bottles. You can use it as an ice bucket, or for whatever you wish!
