Yōhen (窯変), which means \"changed by the kiln\", refers to the attractive gradient from bronze\/brown to black across the pot caused by specific firing conditions. The body is decorated with a detailed pine bark textured that contrasts with the smooth spout and handle. Made using a small wheel, this texturing technique is called matsugawa (松皮 - pine bark) in Japanese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIts built-in ceramic sasame filter is perfect for naturally straining tea, with a wide shape for faster pouring and less clogging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece was made by the highly-respected Gyokko (玉光) Kiln, manned by the master potters of the Umehara family.
