Japanese Kyusu - Takeharu Kiln 竹春窯 Camellia Teapot - 275ml
This brown Tokoname-yaki kyusu (teapot) features a fine steel mesh filter which can be used for the finest of fukamushi senchas and is decorated with an engraved camellia. Made by Takeharu Kiln (竹春窯).
Tokoname-yaki (常滑焼) is a type of Japanese pottery that traditionally comes from Tokoname in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The site of one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns, pottery has been made in Tokoname since the 12th century.
Today, Tokoname ware is known for its iconic brick-red clay called shudei. Famously used in teaware and bonsai pots, this clay’s vibrant colour comes from its rich iron content. Tea steeped in unglazed Tokoname teapots is said to have a mellower taste.
