About this craft
Tokoname, in Aichi Prefecture, is one of Japan's six ancient pottery centers. Its earthenware is prized for tea brewing; the clay's iron content and porous structure naturally improve tea flavor over time. The flat-body kyusu shape is distinctly Japanese, designed to reduce leaf agitation and preserve delicate tea character.
Description
