● Usui-ta (thin board) is a board that is placed under a vase when the vase is placed on a tatami floor.
There are three types: "Yahazuita" (arrow notch board), "Hamaguriba" (clam shell edge), and "Marukodai" (round incense stand), and they are used according to the rank of the vase: Shin, Gyo, or Kusa.
The Rikyu style Yahazuita (arrow notch board) is made of cypress wood with a black lacquer finish, the edge of the board is arrow-notch shaped, the top dimension is one bu larger than the bottom, and the wider side is placed on top, and it is used for real flower vases made of antique copper, celadon, or blue and white porcelain.
Hamaguriba, in the Rikyu style, is made of paulownia wood with a lacquered finish, and the edge of the wood resembles a clam shell. It is available in various finishes including true lacquer, lacquer, roiro lacquer, and black kakiawase lacquer, and is used for vases with glazed Kuniyaki.
The round incense stand, in the Rikyu style, is made of paulownia wood with a kakeawase lacquer finish, with a rounded edge, and is used for unglazed Japanese ware such as Bizen, Iga, and Shigaraki, as well as for "grass" vases such as bamboo vases.
In addition, "wooden clam leaves" made from paulownia, pine, cedar, cypress, and keyaki are used for unglazed bisque and yakishime pottery, bamboo, and gourd pieces that are used as flower vases for grasses.
In large halls, "large boards" and "long boards" are sometimes used, and "Haneda trays" are also sometimes used for antique bronze vases.
