道具
If I were a teacher, I'd teach this on an eight-cornered tray. I like the idea that you can really make out how the highest
点前 of 侘び茶,
行の行, and this 盆略 are directly related.
The official way, however, is to buy a specific tray, of course; the 円能斎's 山道盆. I have no love whatsoever for that tray, but I think the 千歳盆 lid is fine.
Apart from that, go crazy!

茶杓 Finally, the closing is: move 薄茶器・ポンポン・鉄瓶 (for 運び, it's ポンポン・腰・棗 and
茶碗)
宗室 notes: Because it's such a simple
点前, there's no need to move away from いまえ when you leave with the
建水; but acknowledges that a lot of teachers teach it that way.
There are two ways you can do the 点前:
-
Slightly facing the guest. In that case, move the
建水 to the
炉 position after moving the tray.
