Lit. end of the verandah water basin. A type of tall, cylindrical wash basin *chouzubachi 手水鉢 used in *shoin 書院 style gardens and thus also called shoinshiki chouzubachi 書院式手水鉢. The endaki chouzubachi together with its attendant stones is called *hachimae-no-ishigumi 鉢前の石組. Its tall size, usually just over one meter, allows it to be used from the verandah rather than from the garden. Often it is placed along the veranda between the shoin room and the toilet, from which it is shielded by a screen fence *sodegaki 袖垣. When used in large, palatial shoin the ensaki chouzubachi is located a meter away from the veranda, about two meters high, and holds no water. In these cases it is called *kazarihachimae 飾鉢前 or decorative hachimae and a wooden lid or roof may be employed to keep out rain water and other materials. Ensaki chouzubachi seem to have developed into the hachimae in the 17c, and both hachimae and kazarihachimae forms were fixed in the 18c Akizato Ritou's 秋里籬島 TSUKIYAMA TEIZOUDEN KOUHEN 築山庭造伝後編 (see *TSUKIYAMA TEIZOUDEN 築山庭造伝) distinguishes many types of ensaki chouzubachi. | ||||||
