This exquisitely crafted Tokoname-yaki houhin (handleless teapot) is made from a dark grey clay with a super thin layer of an original glaze developed by Tomohiro that gives the pot a unique metallic sheen. Unlike many houhin, this pot has a closed, kyusu-style spout. The small shell-shaped 'ears' on either side help keep your hands from getting burned while handling this pot.
The teapot's built-in ceramic sasame filter is perfect for naturally straining tea, with a wide shape for faster pouring and less clogging.
This houhin was made by Sawada Tomohiro (澤田朋大).
