We've loved every single teapot we've had from shokunin Tamura and Umehara; this new works is also beautiful.
The very fine ceramic is ideal for sencha, but also works well with kamairicha (or similar Chinese style pan-fired tea).
The design on this teapot is hand-painted by Tamura Tsugumori; the black clay kyusu was crafted and fired by Umehara Hirotaka.
