This Kutani-yaki tea set includes one kyusu (teapot), one katakuchi (water cooler), and five yunomi (teacups) each decorated with script and gold and red geometric patterns.

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
