Lit. surplice shape water basins. A stone wash basin *chouzubachi θ «, made from part of a stone pagoda *houtou σ, the design of which is suggestive of a priest's surplice *kesa UΎ (see *mitatemono chouzubachi ©§¨θ «). The basin is made from the cylindrical body *toushin g, of the pagoda, thus the striped priest's robe pattern kesadasuki UΎO, engraved on the body becomes the distinctive feature of the basin. One variety of kesagata is the roketsu type, roketsugata chouzubachi I`θ «, which has the Chinese characters ro I (dew) and ketsu (togather) written on the front side of it. This is said to be the invention of Kobori Enshuu ¬@B (1579-1647) who employed a roketsu kesagata chouzubachi IUΎ`θ « in the shoin garden *shoinniwa @λ at Daitokuji Kohouan εΏΗβΙΑ in Kyoto. | ||||||
