-   * In Japan, they are made from ivory, water buffalo horn, tortoise shell; and of course, bamboo +   * The first 茶杓 were imported from China, and made of ivory (牙 or 骨). The Japanese copied these in bamboo, leading to the first 節無-style. 
-   * There are also pieces made from plain wood, and lacquered ones+   * In Japan, they are made from ivory, too, water buffalo horn (水牛), tortoise shell (鼈甲); and of course, bamboo 
 +   * There are also pieces made from plain wood (cherry, apricot; but also pine, plum), and lacquered ones
  
-===Shape===+====Carving==== 
 +   * You can buy 荒曲げ茶杓 (pre-bent blanks) and start your carving from there.

 +====Shape====
    * They are usually 18 cm long (= 12.5 畳 weaves); but, for example, 利休's student 勢田掃部 had a famous, large 茶碗, so the 茶杓 利休 made for it was 14.5 weaves long (CQ21)    * They are usually 18 cm long (= 12.5 畳 weaves); but, for example, 利休's student 勢田掃部 had a famous, large 茶碗, so the 茶杓 利休 made for it was 14.5 weaves long (CQ21)
-   * When 利休 carved 茶杓, he always wanted to have the 茶入 or the 茶碗 it was to be used with to be next to him ([[https://chanoyu-to-wa.tumblr.com/post/682993528932122624/namp%C5%8D-roku-book-7-17-seta-kamons-chashaku|Nampō Roku 7-17]])+   * When 利休 carved 茶杓, he always wanted to have the 茶入 or the 茶碗 it was to be used with to be next to him ([[https://chanoyu-to-wa.tumblr.com/post/682993528932122624/namp%C5%8D-roku-book-7-17-seta-kamons-chashaku|Nampō Roku 7-17]]). Burkus thus argues that a 茶杓 is specific to a 茶入 (or in rare cases, the 茶碗). 
 +   * There are also scoops with seven nodes, good for auspicious situations (sais [[https://miharakeiji.com/chashaku/|mihara]]) 
 +   * They should have a grove or gutter (called 樋); and if the grove is above the node (in direction of the bamboo's growth, it's called 本樋 or 順樋; otherwise it's 逆樋). 利休 seemed to prefer the latter. 
 +   * He was also fond of raised waist shape called 蟻腰, which supposedly is really hard with 順樋 茶杓. 
 +   * Points of interest are thus the tip, the grove, the bending, the node and how it is cut at the end.
