This is an old revision of the document!
The following is mostly from verdure, with some anecdotes from CQ82 and the Chanoyu Vocabulary
Earthenware 土風炉 (どぶろ), associated with Nara where they became popular around Jōō's time, with masters such as Sōshirō being from there.
Bronze 唐銅(からかね) (an alloy of copper and other metals)
As for ironware, some bronze ones are also made from iron; but the only 風炉 that is always strictly iron is the 窶 (やつれ), which is used in October.
90 x 18 x 9 mm for 風炉, 117 x 21 x 12 for 炉; different woods favoured by different people:
| 利休 | magnolia |
| Sōtan | paulownia (also used today mostly) |
| Sensō (IV) | cherry |
| Ennōsai (XIII) | Japanese apricot |
