Zenigata basin
A Zenigata basin (銭形手水鉢, zenigata chōzubachi) is a traditional Japanese water basin designed to resemble an ancient coin, often used in tea gardens and temples for ritual handwashing. The term zenigata translates to "coin shape," reflecting its circular, coin-like appearance.
The basin features a square water pool surrounded by four Japanese characters, which together convey the phrase "Self knows only contentment," reflecting Buddhist teachings of humility and sufficiency.
