Inoue Tea Fusensaku Hakubai White Blossom Red Tokoname-yaki Kyusu - Japanese Teapot

This Kyusu is crafted from high-quality Tokoname clay (Shudo), exuding elegance and sophistication. The natural beauty of Shudoro clay is showcased beautifully, with each flower on the teapot being intricately hand-drawn.

Tokoname 常滑焼 represents one of Japan's six oldest kilns, with a rich history spanning over 1000 years. Originating from the region around Tokoname city in Aichi prefecture, Tokoname-ware is a form of ceramic pottery that reflects a traditional craft from one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns. The distinctive reddish hue of the pottery is attributed to the iron content in the clay, which transforms during the baking process.

This Kyusu design effectively strains tea and fully drains any remaining water, ensuring a smooth pouring experience. The pot is also easy to clean, simplifying the process of discarding tea leaves and washing afterwards.

Kyusu (急須) are traditional Japanese teapots primarily made from high-quality fired volcanic clay. The term "Kyusu" generally refers to a teapot, often characterized by a side handle in common usage.
