This Kutani-yaki kyusu (teapot) features a garden scene with bamboo and a peacock decorated with vibrant colours and gold trim. The teapot's built-in ceramic debeso filter helps to naturally strain the tea.

Kutani-yaki (九谷焼) is a style of Japanese porcelain traditionally from Kutani, now a part of Kaga, Ishikawa, in the former Kaga Province, Japan. Porcelain wares made here became popular in the 17th century and after production in Kutani was revived in the 19th century, it is known for its intricate designs, called aka-e kinran-de (赤絵 金襴手) Kutani
