Yamada Yūtarō Honshudei Hiragata Ushirode Kyusu Small
Handmade Tokoname teapot from Yamada Yūtarō
Back-handled red clay teapot from Yamada Yūtarō. A precise and elaborate teapot with a beautiful pour for Gyokuro and Chinese tea.
As is often the case with traditional craftsmanship, the famous pottery town, Tokoname is also facing a rapid decrease in potters. Yamada Yūtaro is one of the most promising artists from the youngest Tokoname ceramist generation. He collects clay himself from the mountains around the town, and does all the processing on his own, making beautiful teapots living up to Tokoname's name.
The clay he used for this teapot was mined about half a century ago from the rice fields in Aichi prefecture, on the Chita peninsula during the urbanization. This traditionally mined, deep red shade clay is called honshudei and is extremely rare and precious these days.
In continual use, the surface will gradually become smoother and shinier.

Handling precautions
Initiation:
Before first use, rinse it with hot water, then let it dry completely!
Usage:
Avoid placing it on hot surfaces, like a stove, and never use it in a microwave or oven.
Cleaning:
Tea stain is the natural part of a teapot's "maturing process", but if you prefer to avoid it, rinse the teapot well after every use, and do not let the tea leaves sit in it for too long. It is better to avoid dishwashing liquid, but you can use gentle, organic soap to clean your pot. Never use bleach!
Avoid using a dishwasher or dryer!
To clean the built-in strainer, run water backward from the spout, or use a toothbrush or toothpick.
Storage:
After use, always let it dry completely because it might develop an unpleasant smell or mold if stored away while still wet.
Non-glazed ceramic tea pots absorb scents and flavors, so only prepare one class of tea in them (green tea, black tea, roasted tea, etc).
