Feels clean, neutral, and light

A quiet, transparent tool for preserving the form of the chasen — bringing care, order, and lightness to the matcha ritual.

The Glass Matcha Whisk Stand is designed to help maintain the shape and condition of the chasen, an essential tool for preparing matcha.

After use, if a chasen is left to dry on its own, the tips may gradually close inward, reducing the natural flexibility needed for smooth whisking. By placing the chasen on a whisk stand, the bristles can dry in a gently opened position, helping preserve their shape and extend the life of the whisk.

A Functional Tool with a Refined Presence

Part of the ORIGAMI Tea glass series, this whisk stand is designed not only for function, but also for how it appears on the counter.

The transparent glass material feels clean, neutral, and light. It does not dominate the surrounding space, making it easy to place in a café, tea bar, or home kitchen. As a matcha tool, it carries a sense of traditional purpose, while the glass material gives it a more contemporary expression.

Two Ways to Place the Whisk

The stand supports two different ways of placing the chasen.

Used in the traditional direction, the chasen can be inserted to help open and maintain the shape of the bristles while drying. Alternatively, the whisk may be placed upside down with the handle side facing downward, which can help keep the inner part of the chasen cleaner during short pauses between preparations.

This makes the stand useful not only after cleaning, but also during service — for example, when preparing multiple bowls or moving smoothly from one cup to the next.

Designed to Pair with the Glass Matcha Bowl

When used together with the Glass Katakuchi Matcha Bowl, the whisk stand completes a more refined matcha preparation scene.

Whisking, pouring, resting, and caring for the tools become part of one continuous flow. The matching glass material brings visual harmony to the series, creating a calm and modern expression of matcha preparation.

A Contemporary Approach to Matcha Tools

While respecting the role of traditional matcha utensils, ORIGAMI Tea reconsiders how these tools can fit into present-day spaces.

The Glass Matcha Whisk Stand offers a practical and elegant way to care for the chasen, while maintaining the clean visual language of the glass matcha series.

Care of Use

  • Wash and dry the bowl as soon as possible after use to help prevent matcha stains and odour transfer.
  • Clean gently with lukewarm water and a small amount of mild detergent.
  • Use a soft sponge or bottle brush.
  • Rinse thoroughly after washing.
  • If matcha staining occurs, dissolve one teaspoon of baking soda in lukewarm water and soak for approximately 20–30 minutes, then rinse and wash gently.
  • After washing, drain excess water and allow the bowl to air dry upside down.
  • If the interior is difficult to dry, gently absorb moisture with kitchen paper.
  • Do not use metal scrubbers or abrasive sponges, as they may scratch the glass.
  • Avoid sudden temperature changes, as they may cause damage.
  • Do not use over direct flame.
  • Do not use in a microwave, oven, or dishwasher, including dishwasher drying functions.
  • Due to the manufacturing process, slight wrinkles or air bubbles may appear in the glass. These are natural characteristics and do not affect quality.
  • The manufacturing opening is sealed with silicone resin to prevent water from entering the interior. This is part of the design and is safe for use.

Crafting Beauty and Function in Specialty Coffee & Matcha Tools 

Founded in Gifu (岐阜市), Japan in 2013, Origami Japan—under the K-ai (株式会社ケーアイ) brand—has been dedicated to crafting elegant, functional tools for the specialty coffee and matcha communities. Renowned for its vibrant aesthetics and refined craftsmanship in original pottery (陶器), Origami has earned a global following among baristas, brewers, and tea enthusiasts alike.

Inspired by Japanese Artistry

The name "Origami" comes from the traditional Japanese art of paper folding—symbolising precision, creativity, and simplicity. This philosophy is embodied in every product, blending minimalist beauty with functional design to bring more joy and elegance to everyday brewing rituals.

Design Meets Ritual

Origami products—ranging from colourful ceramic drippers to sleek matcha series—are designed to enhance both the visual and sensory brewing experience. Durable, and ergonomically refined, they cater to professionals and home brewers who value both performance and aesthetics.

Celebrated Worldwide

From championship stages to cozy home kitchens, Origami has become a beloved brand in the global specialty scene. With a growing presence across coffee and tea cultures, it continues to inspire creativity and connection through the simple joy of brewing.

Du Jianing, the 2019 World Brewers Cup Champion, used the Sensory Flavour Cup, which was co-developed by Origami Japan.

14-Day Right of Withdrawal – EU Consumers

If you are purchasing as a consumer, you normally have the legal right to withdraw from an online purchase within 14 days without providing a reason.

The 14-day withdrawal period starts on the day after you, or a person designated by you, receives the goods. If one order is delivered in several shipments, the period starts after receipt of the final item.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, please inform us within this 14-day period through our online withdrawal function or by contacting us at info@kohiraifu.com and clearly stating that you wish to withdraw from your purchase.

Please include your order number whenever possible.

After notifying us of your withdrawal, you have a further 14 days to send the goods back.

Return address:
Kohiraifu
Noordkade 68
2741 EZ Waddinxveen
Netherlands

For change-of-mind returns, the direct cost and risk of returning the goods are the responsibility of the customer. We strongly recommend using a tracked shipping service and keeping your proof of shipment.

Condition of Returned Products

You may inspect a product to the extent reasonably necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and functioning, similar to what would normally be possible in a physical shop.

Please return the product complete, including its accessories and, wherever reasonably possible, its original packaging.

If a product has been handled or used beyond what is reasonably necessary to inspect it and this results in a reduction in value, we may deduct the corresponding diminished value from the refund.


Refunds During the 14-Day Withdrawal Period

For a valid withdrawal of the complete order, we will refund:

  • the purchase price of the returned products; and
  • the cost of our least expensive standard delivery option originally available for the order.

Additional delivery charges resulting from choosing a more expensive delivery method, such as express shipping, are not refundable.

If only part of an order is returned, the original delivery charge is not refunded.

The direct cost of returning the order to Kohiraifu is the responsibility of the customer unless the product is faulty, damaged, incorrect, or we have agreed otherwise.

Refunds will be made using the original payment method. We may withhold the refund until we have received the returned goods or until you provide evidence that the goods have been sent back, whichever occurs first.


Voluntary Returns – Up to 30 Days

In addition to your statutory rights, Kohiraifu may accept eligible products for return for up to 30 days after delivery.

Returns requested after the statutory 14-day withdrawal period are part of our voluntary return policy and require prior approval.

For returns between day 15 and day 30:

  • The product must be unused, complete and in resalable condition, preferably with its original packaging.
  • The customer is responsible for the return shipping costs.
  • Original shipping charges are not refundable.

We reserve the right to decline voluntary returns that do not meet these conditions.

This voluntary return policy does not limit any statutory consumer rights.


Coffee, Matcha, Food & Consumable Products

Certain statutory exceptions to the right of withdrawal may apply to products that deteriorate or expire rapidly, or to sealed products that are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons once their seal has been broken.

Opened coffee, matcha, food products and other consumable products cannot be accepted under our voluntary return policy once opened or used.

This does not affect your rights if the product supplied is faulty, damaged, incorrect or otherwise does not conform to your order.


Damaged, Faulty or Incorrect Products

If your order arrives damaged, faulty, incomplete or different from what you ordered, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible at info@kohiraifu.com.

Please include:

  • your order number,
  • a description of the issue, and
  • photos or video where this can help us assess the problem.

Please keep the product and its original packaging until we have reviewed the case.

Where the product is confirmed to be faulty, damaged or incorrectly supplied, Kohiraifu will arrange an appropriate solution and cover reasonable return shipping costs where a return is required.

Your statutory warranty and conformity rights are not affected by this policy.


Exchanges

If you would like a different product, colour or variation, please contact us first.

Depending on the product and stock availability, we may arrange an exchange or ask you to return the original product and place a new order.


Wholesale & Business Orders

The statutory consumer cooling-off period does not apply to purchases made for business or professional purposes.

Wholesale and other B2B returns are therefore subject to separate conditions and require prior written approval from Kohiraifu.

This does not affect claims relating to products that were damaged, faulty or incorrectly supplied.
