This exhibition, which began on August 31, came on Monday that it would be crowded on Saturdays and Sundays, but double and triple visitors from the entrance of the venue! Speaking of which, from the first day, the 3,000 houses have been alternately pots for two days, and I thought that today was the last day. I don't think we need to explain the Senke Tensho, but since the Sen no Rikyu era, we have been working for more than hundreds of years at 10 professionals who have created Senke-like tea utensils, Rakuyaki, tea pots, bags, and paints. The crowded venue tried "reverse" with usual hands, but there was no effect. Looking at Chojiro's three points, I decided to go back again, and today is the last tea ceremony. This is also lined up. I'm going to be in the next seat somehow, and I'm relieved to wait for the Senke ten video for 20 minutes. Today's charge is Mushakojisenke. When guided, first of all, the sweets are "Kobore Hagi", and the light green and Hitoke Beni are the perfect colors for early autumn. It is said that all the tools were works by Senke Ten, and several bowls (the same type of bowl offered to other than the main customer) were also made by the Eiraku family of our generation for this seat. Luxury. The regular customer's bowl is from Rakukichizaemon today, and the regular customer is enviable.
I thought that the word "Senke Ten Job" had already existed in the Momoyama era, but according to Mitsukoshi's pamphlet, in 1923, the Mitsukoshi Osaka store "Senke Ten Job Tea Ceremony Exhibition" was held. It seems that the first was to use the word "Senke Ten Job". It is surprising that each of the ten professions has been around since the Rikyu era, but they are surprisingly new.
"We will exhibit about 250 tea utensils that have been handed down to the DNA of aesthetics for hundreds of years, ten professionals who have been working with Senke since the Sen no Rikyu era and have been creating their favorite tea utensils." (From Mitsukoshi's pamphlet) Please take a look. At the art gallery on the 6th floor, there is also a "Senke Jushi New Works Exhibition". It's hard to reach, but it's a lot of wonderful works.
