Practical top handles designed to conveniently transport from room to room so as to warm hands and enjoy tea.
These handles also help the warm air flow around.
Typically used during the tea ceremon, when specially prepared charcoal, (Bincho-tan / ubame oak) was first heated in a brazier and then transferred onto the top of the sand inside.
On special occasions, fragrant wood chips, (cedar, pine, sandalwood or rosewood) were placed on top of the charcoal for heating and to provide a pleasing atmosphere. Pairs of hand warmers like this pair were created for use by the host and a guest, transported from room-to- room to warm hands and enjoy tea.
Signature engraved on the underside on both hibachis of the artist
These hibachis come with half filled original sand/ash on which are usually placed hot coals.
Used as personal/individual hand or room warmers.
Approximate Dimensions: Height 10 inch x diameter 6inch
Style Notes: Use this pair of hibachis as plant holders or flower vases to show off the contrasting green foliage for a wabi sabi look.
We can’t say enough about the power of pairs. When doubled up, two of anything draws your eyes to the item and creates an effortless sense of order that looks clean and balanced, but not overly decorated. Placed together this pair of glazed ceramic hibachis in a neutral brown create an orderly vignette.
Separated they can flank a lovely mirror or your favorite piece of art on a mantle or side board. Bring a mid century modern or art deco flair to any interior with these hibachis less
