Handmade in Tokoname, Japan by Hirotaka Umehara from the Gyokko kiln

Built in ceramic infuser.

this teapot has a beautiful chattered surface texture. The classic vermillion clay, known as shudei, gets its colour from the natural iron rich clay in Tokoname and is said to have a good effect on the flavour of the tea.

These beautiful teapots are all made in Japan and are typically used for green tea. The smaller size of the pot allows you to pour out the entire infusion so that tea leaves can be easily re-infused numerous times. The side handle makes pouring easy and is also great for people with arthritis. Each pot contains an infuser to keep the leaves out of your cup! These are a great way to make your own tea ritual more personal.
