TAKASUKE - Handmade Tokoname-yaki Houhin | Handleless Kyusu by Takasuke-gama

A Houhin (宝瓶) is a teapot typically has no handle and smaller in size, allowing for more controlled pouring and a closer connection to the brewing process.

This Houhin made by Takasuke Kiln in Tokoname. Its matte finish gives it a refined elegance, while the gently curved spout ensures a clean & controlled pour. Compact and thoughtfully crafted, this teapot is perfect for 'Tea for one' and travelling. Suitable not only for Gyokuro or Sencha, but also other green teas like Oolong.

Tokoname has a pottery tradition dating back over 800 years to the Kamakura Period. It is one of Japan's six ancient kiln sites, known for its high-quality clay and unique craftsmanship.

Variations in size, glaze, colour, and texture are natural characteristics that highlight the unique, handcrafted nature of each piece.
