I figured that showing things one by one in the matcha of the day topic is going to take ages, so here's one of my cabinets. I have about 30 storage boxes upstairs waiting to be unpacked, but they're all just sitting there until i get the right furniture of a tea room (its a very small room but it has a sink so its perfect).
Anyway I hope you enjoy seeing the photo's, feel free to add yours!
Cabinet showoff!

- More pieces from Seigan Yamane, maybe i went overboard a little lately. 2 Caddies in the back that form a nearly brother and sister image (the blue one is slightly wider and higher).

I used to have the same problem, and i was always annoyed with how fast the dust settles in cups and bowls. This is much nicer - though i still clean them before use

Re: Cabinet showoff!
That cabinet looks very familiar--I have the same one, I think. 
Though sadly it's not large enough to hold all my teawares, so most of my chawan are scattered artistically on shelves here and there ... TAD strikes again! Gorgeous pieces, though, and I am impressed with your photos--I know from experience it's hard to photograph that cabinet without glass reflections getting in the way.

Here's an outdated picture of one of mine (from 2010), a zelkova tea tansu (shorter than it might look from the photo). I have some overflow teaware in a second, bigger, tansu which also houses booze, and also a humidor.
Re: Cabinet showoff!
Wow! That's a nicely filled piece of furniture! Thank you for sharing! And about the photo's i suppose i was lucky not to have to deal with reflections too much;) Lets see yours!
Re: Cabinet showoff!
Some nice pots there:) 3 out of 5 wuxing? xianpiao, roubing, xishi as well as some (newish?)xiangxing and qingying.

Wyardley,
Really nice tansu...very immaculate setup! I really appreciate the aesthetic, especially with the wood floors. Nice humidor as well!
Blessings!

I just moved to Hoi An and the tea room is almost done!
Need still some plants and something for the wall behind my chair!
