TANIMATSUYA TODA SHOTEN has been a tea ceremony utensil merchant since the middle of the Edo period. The shop became a supplier to Matsudaira Fumai, lord of the Matsue domain in Izumo Province, a renowned tea master and art collector, and most currently to Denzaburo Fujita and Rokou Hirase, two of the most prominent tea ceremony donors of the modern era.
