Yōhen (窯変), which means \"changed by the kiln\", refers to the attractive gradient from bronze\/brown to black across the pot caused by specific firing conditions. The body is decorated with a traditional pattern known as 'tochiri' or 'biri', made using a razor blade bounced across the pot as it spins on the pottery wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kyusu's small size is perfect for solo sencha sessions or extended gong fu brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts built-in ceramic sasame filter is perfect for naturally straining tea, with a wide shape for faster pouring and less clogging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece was made by the highly-respected Gyokko (玉光) Kiln, manned by the master potters of the Umehara family.
