The Kiri-Marujoku is a highly traditional style of round utensil stand (joku) used for specific temae (tea procedures) in Chanoyu. The name reflects its construction: Kiri (Paulownia wood) and Maru (round). Crafted entirely from lightweight, fine-grained Paulownia, this stand is easy to handle and move during the ceremony. Its minimalist, two-tiered circular design makes it a versatile and aesthetically pleasing piece of authentic Japanese tea equipment for any serious practitioner.
