This Banko-yaki kyusu (teapot) features a spotted brown ash glaze over purple clay. Its mesh strainer is perfect for brewing even the most deeply-steamed fukamushi senchas.

Banko-yaki (萬古焼) is a type of Japanese pottery that traditionally comes from Yokkaichi in Mie Prefecture, Japan. Its characteristic purple hue comes from the mixture of red oxidised iron and blue high temperature-baked iron in the clay.

Dimensions:

15.4cm (6.1in) - width (including handle)
6.8cm (2.7in) - height
230ml - capacity

Condition: Very good (chip on the spout and minor interior tea stains - please see photos)
