Whisk Holder (Naoshi)
The Whisk Holder is a ceramic tea accessory designed for holding a Japanese bamboo whisk.
This authentic Mino ware whisk stand was made in Japan, and is finished with a Tenmoku glaze or a calming Miruku neutral glaze that will fit in with any home decor. Upon a closer look, the glossy Tenmoku glaze reveals beautiful reddish-brown details.
The unique shape of this whisk holder, also called a naoshi, makes for the perfect stand for the Hojicha Whisk. A handcrafted bamboo whisk is a precious tea utensil, and will last longer when stored correctly on the naoshi.
After preparing Hojicha Powder, rinse the bamboo whisk and carefully place it on the whisk holder. The whisk holder will protect the natural bamboo and help the bristles maintain their shape as they dry.
Please expect and embrace slight variations in the glaze. The Whisk Holder must be washed by hand only.
