Wagashi-zukushi (All Kinds of Japanese Confectionery)Sunken Hearth and Brazier Version INTRODUCTION:This book contains about 1,400 varieties of wagashi (Japanese confections) used in the tea ceremony, divided into two parts: the sunken hearth season (winter to spring) and the brazier season (summer to autumn). These wagashi are categorized by seasonal terms in the order of the changing seasons. In addition, about 16 examples of tea ceremony utensils and wagashi combinations for seasonal tea ceremonies are illustrated with photographs.At the end of the book, there is an index of all wagashi names and information on stores that sell them. A glossary of Japanese confectionery terms is also included. Comments from usThe colorful wagashi in the book are a strong reminder of the culture of the Edo period, and these wagashi made during the long period of peace after the Warring States period are said to reflect the desire for a revival of the culture of the earlier dynasties and longevity.What we found in this book was that there are many variations of wagashi on themes of interest to the Japanese. In terms of seasonal flowers, they include plum, camellia, cherry, chrysanthemum, and maple. Flip through the pages and you will discover the Japanese sense of the seasons. We highly recommend this book! ------------------------------- All content is in Japanese.Hardcover with slip case, 223pages + 223pages Size per book: approx 223mm X 310mm X 50mm (8.8 inches X 12.2 inches X 2.0 inches ) Weight: approx 3200gPlates: all in color SHIPPING:This item is in stock in our store.
