Tea Ceremony
Tea Ceremony
The tea ceremony has a century-old history in Japan. Everything is directed towards and focused on the preparation and enjoyment of one bowl of matcha (whisked green powder tea): The incense, displayed calligraphy, the colours and textures of the utensils for the tea ceremony are all specifically chosen for this occasion and make the guests become present in the current moment with all senses and full awareness. The careful movements and soft sounds of the tea preparation calm and focus the mind on this one fleeting instant.
Therefore, the Japanese speak of ichigo ichi'e, a meeting happening only once in a lifetime.
What could be more special than giving a tea ceremony as a present to mark an important moment or phase in life?
In a personally and caringly created ceremony, I would like very much to prepare a bowl of tea for your special occasion:
Birth
Name-giving
Marriage / independent wedding ceremony
Birthday
After serious illness
Farewell
