Koshin PineBark Teapot - 200ml

Koshin PineBark Teapot - 200ml

.

Japanese kyusu teapot by master Koshin - Kato Tadaomi (1944-2024)

These teapots undergo multiple firings, with the second firing in a reducing atmosphere helping to achieve an almost black color. 

The handle and lid of the teapot are polished, while the "body" of the teapot has a fine sand texture called "Pine Tree Peel."

A beautiful collector's item that is a joy to use for tea. Teapots from this master in such a small volume do not always appear, making them a rarity.

Each piece is unique.

Dimensions:

Height including lid: 8cm

Teapot diameter: 9cmcm

Volume: 200ml (approximately 160ml with leaves)

.

Before use: before first use, rinse the teapot in hot water and let it dry completely.

Maintenance: do not use cleaning agents or a dishwasher. Clean by hand with clean water, without chemicals. The teapot must be left to dry after each use. Ideally, designate the teapot for a specific type of tea for which it will always be used.
