Bizen Matsukasa Hōhin
Handmade unglazed teapot from Bizen
Handleless teapot from Bizen. The pour is fast and precise, and the teapot is ideal for Japanese green teas. Thanks to the small ears on both sides, it is easy to hold even when brewing hot tea.
We have only two pieces of this teapot, each with a unique design and finish, so we've labeled them from A) to C).
Measurements of the teapots:
A) Capacity: 160 ml; Dimensions: ø 8.6 cm x H: 8.6 cm
B) Capacity: 160 ml; Dimensions: ø 8.8 cm x H: 9 cm
C) Capacity: 150 ml; Dimensions: ø 8.6 cm x H: 9 cm
Bizen ware, named after Bizen province, was traditionally crafted in and around the village of Imbe. It originated during the Kamakura period and is recognized as one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns. Distinctively, Bizen ware is always fired in a wood-burning kiln and typically left unglazed, giving it a rustic and natural charm.
This hōhin makes a perfect set with the Bizen yuzamashi.

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 the 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, for if stored away while still wet, it might develop an unpleasant smell or mold.
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).
