Kyusu ‘Kurokusube’ Large – Nankei Ceramics
$95
This ‘Kurokusube’ Kyusu teapot is a signature design of Yokkaichi based ceramic studio Nankei.
It is made from 100% clay (apart from the mesh strainer) which is high in iron content. Iron is considered to enhance and mellow the flavour of Japanese Green Tea.
The teapot is made of 4 parts which are crafted separately by specialist artisans. They come together to produce a perfectly balanced teapot made with exacting skill.
The fine mesh filter in the base of the teapot is a unique design ideal for Japanese green tea, as the leaves are often small. Additionally, as it’s raised slightly from the base, it stops tea from over-infusing and prevents extra cups, and/or steeps from becoming bitter.
The modern, yet classic design of this Kyusu makes it suitable for any interior or taste.
Capacity: 320ml (good for 1-3 cups of tea)
Size (Approx): Width (inc. handle) 165mm / Height 97mm / Diameter 95mm

My order arrived very fast and was packed well for protection. The items are beautiful and I’m very happy with them. The teapot was smaller than I expected initially but I think that’s because I’m from Canada where we use huge tea pots. Now I love the smaller pot. I also love cups that I bought. Highly recommend.

I gave this as a gift to my husband who has recently gotten into fine teas. He absolutely loves it. It’s beautiful, stylish, and it makes a HUGE difference in the taste of the tea. It’s become a regular part of his day.

This is one of the most refined Kyushu I ave seen. It’s’ blue/black color does remind one of iron. Balance is excellent. It exudes an ambiance of distant times. Beautiful. Lance
