Urasenke Tea Procedure Guidebook 1 Introductory Level (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9784473041784)

In 2010, the first volume of a new, all-color series of tea-procedure guidebooks in Japanese, the Urasenke Chado Temae Kyosoku series by Iemoto Soshitsu Sen XVI, came out from Tankosha. Urasenke Tea Procedure Guidebook 1 is the English edition of that initial volume. Aimed as a study aid for beginning students of Urasenke chado, it provides "how to" information on mannerly deportment in the tea room, basic tea-making procedure elements, the beginner level Bonryaku tea-making procedure, a variant of it called the Chitose-bon procedure, and basic guest etiquette.
