Vintage Tokoname Kyusu Teapots – Traditional Japanese Red Clay with Filter & Mat

Vintage Tokoname Kyusu Teapots – Traditional Japanese Red Clay with Filter & Matching Cup

Beautiful and authentic Tokoname ware Kyusu teapots, crafted in Japan using the region’s signature iron-rich shudei clay, known for its striking brick-red to red-orange tone. Tokoname, located in Aichi Prefecture, is one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns, and its teapots are highly respected for their role in traditional Japanese tea culture.

These Kyusu teapots are specially designed for brewing green tea, with unglazed interiors that enhance the tea’s umami and smooth out bitterness — a favorite among tea purists.

This set includes:
• Teapot 1: Comes with its original Japanese sticker, has an integrated ceramic filter, and includes a matching red ceramic teacup.
• Teapot 2: Includes a removable metal tea filter inside.

Both teapots are in good condition with no chips or cracks, and show the beautiful natural red-orange tone Tokoname ware is known for.
