#36 Seiho Tsuzuki (180ml)

Handcrafted by renowned Tokoname artisan Seiho Tsuzuki, this yakishime rear-handle kyusu reflects the refined balance between traditional craftsmanship and functional beauty. Its chrysanthemum-shaped lid, carefully sculpted by hand, brings a subtle elegance to the vessel while highlighting the artisanal precision for which Tsuzuki’s work is known. Fired at high temperatures without glaze, the yakishime clay retains a natural, breathable texture that is appreciated for its ability to mellow and round the flavor of tea over time. The classic rear-handle form offers a comfortable grip and controlled pouring, while the integrated sasame clay strainer allows tea leaves to open fully during infusion. Both expressive and deeply practical, this kyusu is designed to enhance the preparation of Japanese, Chinese, and black teas while embodying the enduring heritage of Tokoname ware.
