A friend of mine is a fan of Japanese culture, and has mentioned that she would like to one day get into Japanese tea ceremonies.
I don’t think she wants or needs a high end one, and it won’t be used a whole lot. I’m looking for a starting set that still has what is needed to do a ceremony.
I have been trying to do research but I feel like I have no idea what is needed, one thing I’m looking for is (if possible) that it comes with storage.
Any help or advice would be great. If you know where i can get a set or at the very least what a starter set needs would help me a lot.

A good start would just be: high grade matcha, a nice chawan, and bamboo whisk. Ebay is your best bet for handmade chawans, you can get beautiful vintage handmade ones for the same price as mass-produced chawans on Amazon.
Obviously there is a lot more than could go into tea ceremony, but high grade matcha and a nice chawan will get you 90% of the way there.
