Lit. window in front of stove. A window opened in the wall by the host's mat *temaedatami _Oτ, opposite the portable hearth *furo F, in a tea ceremony room *chashitsu Ί. Traditionally attributed to Sen Rikyuu ηx (1522-91). The furosakimado provides light and allows heat from the brazier to escape. The window is usually filled with lattice made of ditch-reed and bamboo tied with vine *shitajimado Ίn. Most furosakimado are 54.5cm high, 45cm wide and the sill is 21cm from the surface of the matting *tatami τ, although the size can vary depending on the size of the room. Sometimes the window is higher than its width, and occasionally the sides have undulating edges. The window frames are usually plastered over completely, resulting in rounded corners. There are single grooves at the top and bottom of the window, allowing the sliding shutter *shouji αq, open to about half way across the window. In a large tearoom where a screen *furosaki byoubu Fζ is used in front of the hearth, the furosakimado is positioned higher than the screen, and an ornamental bamboo post is attached outside. Generally this type of window flourished after the small-size tatami, daimeza δΪΐ, came into being, and many were made during the Momoyama period. A good example can be seen in Katsura Rikyuu Shoukintei j£{ΌΥΰ, Kyoto. | ||||||
