Here, the 茶箱 is brought in on a flower-shaped tray called 花形盆. It was designed by Ennōsai (XIII), so I guess he made some adjustments to Gengensai's 点前. For this one, the 道具 are still wrapped in 仕覆, and the host turns slightly towards the guests.

点前

➡️ Even though you turn slightly towards the guest, the 建水 stays in 風炉 mode (unlike 略盆)!

点前 with 拝見

💪 When leaving, it's a bit awkward because you put the tray in the middle, and then directly from there pick it up to leave (touch and go). I'm not a big fan of that (even though KM26 thinks it's still preferable), so I'd just leave directly.

点前 without 拝見

道具

The 道具 used here are festive and relate to the happiness of spring; so a shiny 鉄瓶, a lacquered 茶箱, a happy 茶碗.
