Engraved Sakura Tokoname Teapot - 250ml

This stylish Tokoname-yaki kyusu (teapot) is made from the iconic Tokoname shudei (朱泥) clay, known for its brilliant red colour and ability to subtly reduce the astringency of tea. The body is coated in a white slip, into which patterns and sakura petals have been engraved, employing the sgraffito technique to reveal the vibrant red clay underneath.

The teapot's built-in ceramic sasame filter is perfect for naturally straining tea, with a wide shape for faster pouring and less clogging.
