Kyusu Japanese Teapot - Ochre Yohen - 210ml - #53



Kyusu Japanese Teapot - Ochre Yohen - 210ml - #53
Hand made in Tokoname, Japan by Hakusan
Built in ceramic filter
This teapot uses a yellow clay body which fires black in reduction atmosphere. The yohen colouring is achieved by burying the teapot in rice husks when it is fired. The exposed areas of the teapot fire to a beautiful yellow colour while the parts of the teapot covered by the rice husks fire to a dignified black.
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.
