Grey Sandstone Tokoname Japanese Tea Set by Jinsui (9.8oz/290ml)

Grey Sandstone Tokoname Japanese Tea Set by Jinsui (9.8oz/290ml)

Why We Love It

The Tokoname Japanese Tea Set by Jinsui is a masterclass in elegance and functionality, featuring a kyusu teapot (9.8oz/290ml) and two teacups in a unique sand-colored finish. Crafted from the renowned Tokoname clay, the teapot set showcases a minimalist design making it a truly unique gift for tea lovers.

The integration of a 'ceramesh' tea strainer into the teapot allows for a seamless tea infusion without the need for a metal strainer, ensuring the tea leaves spread evenly and release their full flavor without any metallic interference or impurities.

The sleek and streamlined design not only contributes to its stylish appearance, but also facilitates the even expansion and complete extraction of the tea leaves’ essence. This results in a tea experience that captures the purest flavors of the brew.

Why Choose a Teapot from TokonameĀ 

Tokoname teapots and teacups are lightweight, resistant, smooth, and particularly easy to use. Green tea enthusiasts swear by the taste that Tokoname clay imparts to the tea. It is said that the iron contained in Tokoname clayĀ softens the astringency and adds roundness to Japanese green tea. Moreover, Tokoname teapots take on a patina over time: the tea brewed in theseĀ kyusuĀ gains in quality. Each teapot is fired with its lid placed on. Consequently, the lids areĀ extremely airtight.

Tokoname-yaki ware is produced in the area around the town of Tokoname, in Aichi prefecture, and isĀ one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan. Tokoname is the center of teapot production in Japan: nowadays, there are numerous kilns in activity, with artisans still pursuing traditional techniques.

Handcrafted by the skilled artisan Hitomizu at the Jinsui kiln, this teapot set is perfect for those who cherish both the ritual of tea and the artistry of Japanese craftsmanship.

Caring For Your Kyusu Teapot

After use, the tea set should be rinsed thoroughly with hot water, which will help it to dry faster. Store the teapot in a well-ventilated area, and do not replace the lid before the inside is completely dry. Pay attention to the interior of the spout, which remains wet for a long time.
