Tea master Cha-shi (2023) Original Wood Sculpture by Roland Köpfer

The hand-carved figure made from the branch of a barberry. The yellow marbled wood is thin-walled. There is a rudimentary figure that spontaneously reminds of a Japanese tea master (Cha-shi). The figure is glued on a pedestal, an artifact of a bog oak. A certificate from the Ciara Institute Mannheim is available for this piece, which confirms the age of 3082 BC. It is included in the scope of delivery. The accompanying wooden spoon is a homage to the wooden spoon, which has a deeper meaning in many cultures. It is probably more recent, also bog oak, without a certificate. It can be hung in the figure. All woods are untreated. This is the best way for them to show their very natural, true character. The tea master is already looking forward to an upcoming ceremony, which he may attend. A signed certificate with the work number 1050 is part of the delivery, not the tea house, birdhouse or bonsai shown in the backdrop. The total weight is 239 grams.
