The Hayakawa school was a late 19th to 20th century lineage of bamboo artists producing [[tea ceremony|tea implements]] and other objects. The head of the school in each generation inherited the [[art-name]] Hayakawa Shôkosai.

[[Hayakawa Shokosai I|Hayakawa Shôkosai I]] ([[1815]]-[[1897]]) may have been the first bamboo artist to take after new trends in painting, ceramics, and sculpture, and sign his works. He rose to prominence in [[1877]] when one of his works was given the Phoenix Prize in the First [[Domestic Industrial Exposition]] in Tokyo.

His eldest son ([[1860]]-[[1905]]) took on the name [[Hayakawa Shokosai II|Hayakawa Shôkosai II]] and continued in his father's footsteps, but died young.

A younger son of Shôkosai I then took on the name [[Hayakawa Shokosai III|Hayakawa Shôkosai III]] ([[1864]]-1922) and developed new styles in bamboo art, exploring beyond the styles of his father.

[[Hayakawa Shokosai IV|Hayakawa Shôkosai IV]] ([[1902]]-1975) relocated from Osaka to Kyoto and established a new Hayakawa family workshop there.

[[Hayakawa Shokosai V|Hayakawa Shôkosai V]] (1932-2011) continued the family tradition, and regularly participated in annual Japanese Traditional Art & Crafts Exhibitions from 1966 onward. In 2003, he was named a [[Living National Treasure]].
