A tall, cylindrical Tokoname-yaki kyusu (常滑焼 急須) from the Jinsui (人水) kiln in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture, home of one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns. At 700 ml (23.7 fl oz) it is the pot for sharing: one fill comfortably serves three or more, which makes it our pick for hojicha, bancha and everyday Japanese green tea at the table.
- Built-in ceramic mesh strainer: the fine mesh is part of the clay body, so there is no metal taste and the leaves have room to open fully.
- Unglazed matte black clay: the stoneware is fired without glaze, and it takes on a deeper sheen the more you use it.
- Hand-fitted lid: each lid is hand-polished to its own pot (futasuri) for a snug, quiet fit.
- Side handle (yokode): the classic Japanese side grip lets you pour with one hand.
- Wide opening: easy to fill, empty and rinse. Your hand fits inside.

Specifications

- Capacity: 700 ml (23.7 fl oz), filled to the brim
- Size: 18.5 cm (7.3 in) wide including handle, 17 cm (6.7 in) deep including spout, 11 cm (4.3 in) tall

Care
- Rinse with warm water only. No soap or chemical detergents, and no metal scrubbers.
- Not for the dishwasher, the microwave or a direct flame.
- After use, wipe it dry and leave the lid off so the pot can air-dry completely.
Each pot is finished by hand, so size, color and texture vary slightly from piece to piece. Small pinholes or dark iron specks in the clay are a natural part of Tokoname-yaki, not defects.
