Aquamarine Glazed Tokoname Teapot - 180ml

This captivating, small Tokoname-yaki kyusu (teapot) has a charming shape and is decorated with a stunning lustrous glaze designed to evoke the beauty of aquamarine gemstones. The interior is left unglazed

The teapot's built-in ceramic sasame filter is perfect for naturally straining tea, with a wide shape for faster pouring and less clogging. Unlike most Tokoname kyusu, this lid is made in the inset style, similar to the styles of Chinese Yixing teaware.

This kyusu was made by Tsuzuki Yutaka (都築豊) of Daikoji Kiln (大興寺窯). Born in 1972 and founding his own kiln in 2003, Yutaka-san is known for works in this style, with delicate floral designs dancing across a subtly textured yakishime surface.
