边桌与座架
竹制水缸架
高而窄的竹制座架，将1.5公升的水瓶准确擡至手肘高度——让注水伸手可及，又不占据茶桌空间。
$105USD · 1.6 kg
这个座架出自福建北部山区的一间小作坊，离供应当地招牌竹编器具的竹林不远。那里的木匠专门为老茶馆制作「水塔」；三座作坊聚集在一条土路旁，父子们仍以手工劈竹。
这个水瓶座架本非商品——一位年迈的茶师为他的学生订制了一套六个，每个都根据学生拥有的水瓶高度精准裁切。师傅调整榫接，并以装满石头的壶测试稳定性。作坊同意生产一小批量，采用标准高度与顶环，并使用已风干三个雨季的八年老毛竹。
每个座架均以榫卯接合组装，无胶无钉。顶环经蒸气软化弯曲，再以单股藤条捆绑。由于竹子是活材，每座都有自己独特的竹节纹理与轻微色差——正是茶人所珍视的不规则之美。每年查看一次新收获的竹材，并带回十二件作品。
In the workshop's words
Grain, at rest
The surface is hand-sanded to a silky grain, with a soft honey-gold patina that deepens with age. The subtle scent is reminiscent of dry bamboo leaves.
Under water
When a damp cloth passes over it, the bamboo releases a faint, sweet steam like fresh-cut grass.
In low light
The stand itself catches the light in narrow vertical stripes, its shadow bringing a rhythmic stillness to the room.
Scent
Over time, it will absorb whispers of the tea session — a blend of wood, water, and damp stone.
Underhand
Not a taste, but a constant tactile assurance: the carafe is there when you need it, the stand sturdy and unmoving.
Finish, over time
When the last guest leaves, the stand remains — a quiet reminder of the gathering, grain after grain.
Setting it up
放置在主泡茶者伸手可及之处，略偏左或右，让水壶把手朝向外侧。此座架不适用于炉灶或沸腾水壶——仅供室温或微温水使用。
