Product Material :
Give your bamboo matcha whisk a proper place to rest. This small marble chasen holder (kusenaoshi) supports the whisk from the inside as it dries, helping the delicate bamboo prongs keep their natural rounded shape between uses — so every bowl of matcha whisks up just as smoothly as the first.
Carved from solid natural marble in three stones — deep Grey, warm honey Onyx and soft Beige — it's a calm, weighty piece that looks as good on an open shelf as it does beside your tea bowl.

Keeps your chasen in shape – the rounded form sits inside the whisk's prongs, preventing them from splaying or bending as they dry

-
Three stone colours – Grey, Onyx or Beige to suit your matcha set

As each holder is shaped from natural stone, sizes are approximate and slight variations in colour and pattern are part of its character.
How to Use
After whisking your matcha, rinse the chasen in warm water (no soap), shake off the excess and place it prongs-down over the holder. Leave it to air-dry fully before storing.
Care
Wipe the marble with a soft, damp cloth and dry. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners, as these can dull natural stone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it come with a matcha whisk?
No – this listing is for the marble holder only. The bamboo chasen in the photos is shown to illustrate how it is used.
Will it fit my whisk?
At approx. 4 x 4 cm, it is sized for standard bamboo matcha whisks, which sit over the holder with the prongs resting around it.
Why use a whisk holder?
Leaving a chasen to dry on its side or upright on its handle can flatten or splay the delicate prongs. A holder lets air reach every tine while supporting their natural shape, helping your whisk last longer.
Will my holder look exactly like the photos?
Every piece of marble is unique, so the veining and tones of your holder will differ slightly from those pictured.
