Thrown from one of Jinshū's signature clays, a speckled stoneware, the shape was then distorted with a paddle, forming it into softened pentagon. The flattened sides also have a beautiful cracked texture. The pot exhibits a beautiful yōhen (窯変) colour gradation with hues of red, brown, and bronze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe teapot's 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\u003eMade by Itō Seiji (伊藤成二) who is the second-generation head of Jinshū Pottery (甚秋陶園). Born in 1949, Itō-san shifted away from the mass-production style of his father towards more individualist wares, focusing primarily on kyusu. Today, Jinshū's name is almost synonymous with his exquisite hira-kyusu (flat teapots). This teapot comes in a kiribako (桐箱 - paulownia wood box) signed and sealed by the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Itō Seiji","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45548260098092,"sku":"US-K203","price":298.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/9174\/7116\/files\/download_e54ab375-b931-4dfd-9cbe-d5391b2457e8.jpg?v=1779027890","url":"https:\/\/rak1pm-kn.myshopify.com\/products\/pentagonal-yohen-tokoname-teapot-160ml","provider":"NEBULAPRIMEX ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
