Japanese Tea Ceremony [EPUB ebook] 
Cha-No-Yu

The tea cermony–known as cha-no-yu, or literally 'hot water for tea’–has touched nearly every aspect of Japanese life.
First published in 1933 as
Cha-No-Yu, or
The Japanese Tea Ceremony, this classic remains the gold standard for books on the five-centuries-old tea ceremony, which is itself 'an epitome of Japanese civilization.’ Abundantly illustrated with drawings and photographs showing every aspect of the tea ceremony, this book takes readers on a complete tour of furniture and utensils, architecture and gardens, and numerous other features of
cha-no-ya. Photos of tea bowls, teahouses and gardens reveal the exquisite artistry of the cult of tea.
The Japanese Tea Ceremony is a fascinating exploration of one of Japan’s greatest arts and details the importance of the tea ceremony’s history and traditions, its historical tea masters and its physical manifestations.
This book includes:

• Descriptions of the many disciples contained within the broader framework of tea ceremony, including art, architecture, gardening and exquisite handicrafts


• The experiences of masters of the art over the centuries


• Histories of the various schools and traditions of the art of tea
