Taisen Nanban Daruma Kugibori Kyusu

This teapot is an example of Banko-Yaki, a 300 year-old Japanese pottery style. The main idea is that the special, unglazed Banko clay reacts with the tannins of the tea leaves to make a smoother tea. 

This is a hand-made piece from the Taisen Kiln.

Roughly 200ml capacity.
