Honors,
after a very long discussion between people within my organization, we have recognized that some arts of the past (since Hideyoshi Shogunate and even more after recent changes in Kusari) went into obscurity. We are talking about clay pottery, untensils made from stone, glass or even copper or any other pottery, related with such art as is tea ceremony and its brewerage - something, that is a few millenia old tradition.
We are, so far, one of the main importers of the Tea leaves from Planet Curacao (Cortez System), yet we realized about turning tea ceremonies into simplification, what could end in decay of our traditions and heritage. We, as the Kusari people, would like to preserve this tradition, connected with tea brewerage and such oriented pottery. Many names of great pottery masters has vanished on the cards of the history.
Kusari Trade Association is ready to support and try to revive such traditions, for sake of our unique culture as a whole. We simply need your acceptance in our doings, as we are very concerned about decline in interest of our next generations. Perhaps machines do their job well, but it has nothing of both spiritual and aestetic value as hand-made and hand-brewed tea in small room, with accompany of a few people around.
