Gyokko Hiyohen Asagata Biri Kyusu

Thanks to its flat and wide shape, this teapot is particularly suitable for premium quality teas, because as they have larger space to open, the leaves graze each other less, releasing less catechin, thus revealing the tea's true sweetness and gentle elegance.

The teapot was fired in a reduction chamber, where the clay carbonizes and gives the surface a matte black patina. It has yōhen finish. Yōhen in Japanese means "changed by the flame". When the teapot is fired, the heat fluctuates in the kiln, which results in color changes on the surface. This makes every piece unique with the impression of randomness, which has both aesthetic and philosophical appeal to the Japanese.

Place of origin: Tokoname city, Aichi prefecture, Japan
