.

Porcelain teapot from Izushi Ware, or Izushi-yaki, recognized as a national traditional craft of Japan since 1980.

The material is called Kakitani pottery stone - white porcelain stone, which gives this style a very pure color and makes the teapots almost translucent.

The very fine and delicate decoration is also typical.

However, such precise kyusu are not typical and are very rarely available.

The volume of 250 ml is without tea leaves; the resulting volume when brewing tea is approximately 200 ml.

The teapot is beautifully crafted and pours well. It has a small handle, so it is used as shown in the photo.
