●What are hibashi (fire tongs)? Hibashi are metal chopsticks used to put charcoal from a charcoal pot into the brazier or hearth during the sumidemae ceremony, in which the host puts charcoal into the brazier or hearth in front of the guests.
They come in a variety of materials, including sand-plated, brass, and iron, with most being made of iron. There are three types of craftsmanship: hammered, plain (blank or nested), and cast-in. Some also have patterns created using inlay or other techniques.
They are broadly divided into those for furo and those for ro; those for furo are all made of metal, while those for ro have wooden handles; mulberry handles are the most common, and in the Rikyu style, there are also those wrapped in Karaki, black persimmon, and cherry bark.
Fire tongs that are placed next to a ladle in a pedestal or long board ladle stand are called decorative fire tongs, and are always made entirely of metal and are of high rank, with a decoration on the top.
There are also long fire tongs for use in the water room, which are made of iron with a handle wrapped in bamboo skin and secured with hemp thread.

Kettle maker and metal craftsman
The origin of the Kamaza dates back to when the capital was moved from Nara to Heian, and metalworkers moved to Kyoto and formed a troupe. Since then, many troupes have declined, but the Kamaza troupe has survived, and the Takagi family still makes kettles and other items, preserving the tradition to this day.
