Japanese Stone Garden Water Basin Chōzubachi

About the Item

A Chōzubachi is an ornamental water basin found in the traditional Japanese garden. It is used for the ritual washing of the hands and rinsing of the mouth before a person is allowed to participate in the tea ceremony or enter holy grounds such as Buddhist temples or Shinto shrines. Loosely translated Chōzubachi means Water basin for the hands. The basin is in two parts, the top bowl and the spool form base. Dimensions: 22.5” diameter by 5.75” high. Condition: Please see all detail photos. There is some weathering to the basin and expected age-related marks to the stone which do not impact the fine Japanese presentation.
