Mori Iroku III - Banko-Yaki Diamond Cut - 240ml

Mori Iroku III - Banko-Yaki Diamond Cut - 240ml (1936-2014)

.

Japanese Kyusu Banko teapot by master Mori Iroku III, made from the renowned Banko shide (紫泥) clay, a dark brown clay with subtle purple tones. The high iron content in the clay suppresses the bitterness of green teas and enhances the desired flavor profile.

Each piece is original and there may be slight differences in the color of the clay, and of course it is not possible to achieve two identical cuts. However, they are all equally beautiful and unique.

Pot was never used. It is old vintage pot, which can have some minor imperfections on the surface

.

Before use: rinse the teapot in hot water before first use and allow to dry completely.

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