A very nice, basic handcrafted teapot from Tokoname Japan. Unique to this design is the "swing" type of stainless steel infuser screen (see detailed images for a more accurate view.) The infuser screen is curved and is suspended off of the floor of the teapot, allowing the wet leaves to drain completely without remaining wet on the floor of the teapot in between subsequent infusions.

Holds 13.5 ounces (400ml)

I have received this beauty today and just used it to make a beautiful cup of kabusecha. As this was my first time brewing loose leave green tea in a kiyutsu I have nothing to compare it to, but would say that it was quiet easy. The infuser screen is meshed finely enough so that no particles will slip through. I was pleasantly surprised about how small the teapot is, as it looks bigger in the picture. It comfortably brews about 12 ounces of tea. Anything more than that and the water escapes through the top when pouring. It is a simple design but does a fine job!

I have had this teapot for a year and use it 6-10 times daily!! Nice simple design and color. Very easy to clean! The swing mesh works perfectly, I can usually get 3-5 infusions from each tea I use.
Like it from beggining
