This is an authentic Hosei-dana—a specialised tana (shelf or stand) used in the formal Omotesenke school of the Japanese tea ceremony (Chanoyu). The stand is presented in the highly regarded Kyokosai konomi style, celebrated for its simple lines and functional elegance. Meticulously crafted from premium, aromatic Sugi (cedar), the stand features a distinct curved cut-out and includes a removable inner shelf, allowing for flexibility in various tea presentations (temae). This traditional piece is indispensable for dedicated practitioners.
