A very beautiful, small Japanese teapot with sidalg. These sideways jugs are really nice to pour off, they are well in hand and everything works just well.
The Japanese city of Tokoname is known for outstanding good tea ceramics. The city goes with the neighboring towns of Seto, Echizen, Shigaraki, Tamba and Bizen under the term "the 6 Japanese ovens". The special ferrous ground in Tokoname has been used since the 12th century by local ceramics, to produce beautiful and functional tea ceramics.
The best result is achieved when the tea leaves can flow freely in the teapot during the drawing. This Japanese teapot is equipped with a fine mesh, stainless steel filter that filters the tea when serving. When the tea is done, the teapot is completely emptied - the last drop is always the best. The tea leaves will be relatively dry and can be better recycled later.
After use, the teapot should be thoroughly cleaned. Remove the tea leaves and rinse thoroughly with warm water. If necessary, wipe the teapot inside with a soft cloth. Never use detergents, neither inside, nor on the outside of the teapot. The teapot must air dry completely before the lid is applied.
Never use the same tap for very different types of tea as the teapot will absorb aroma when brewing.
Size: Height without lid: 55 mm. Diameter without handle: 80 mm.
