This book is the photo collection of tea ceremony utensils related to Rikyu, Oribe and Ensyu at the exhibition by Eisei Bunko Museum.
Rikyu is a 16th century tea master, and these three men are called Three Major Tea Master.

There are 80 items shown in full color, and the last about 12 pages are descriptions of 80 items (in Japanese).
Each item is in each one page.
There are very rare items such as bamboo teaspoons made by three of these men.

The Eisei Bunko Museum is in Tokyo. Its collection includes historical documents and artifacts, and works of fine art. It is said that the collection is 112000 items, but it might have much more. This is why Eisei Bunko is called phantasmal. The museum is located what was formerly the grounds of the Hosokawa clan.
The Hosokawa clan wielded significant power over the course of the Muromachi (14c-), Sengoku (15c-), and Edo periods(15c-19c).

Rikyu, Sen no Rikyū (1522-1591) is considered the historical figure with the most profound influence on the Japanese tea ceremony. At the age of fifty-eight, Rikyū became tea master for Oda Nobunaga (a major daimyo, the most powerful feudal rulers) and, following his death, for Toyotomi Hideyoshi(daimyo who unified Japan)

Furuta-ryu school and Enshu-ryu school are one of the branched schools.

Furuta Oribe (1545-1615) was the founder of the Oribe Ryū school of Japanese Tea Ceremony. He is one of Rikyu-Shichitetsu, which means 7 closest disciples of Rikyu.


Kobori Enshu (1579-1647) was a notable artist and aristocrat in the reign of Tokugawa Ieyasu(the founder and first shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan).
