This Kutani-yaki tea set includes one large kyusu (teapot) and four yunomi (teacups) each decorated with red floral motifs. The teapot's built-in ceramic debeso filter is perfect for naturally straining 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
