Removable tea strainer
The additional removable tea strainer allows you to maintain the exact brewing time and then keep the tea warm in the teapot.
Tokoname has been known worldwide for over 1000 years for its natural clay pottery. Throughout the city you can admire sights made of clay.
When cleaning our original Japanese teapots, you should only use water and no cleaning agents. The clay inside the kyusu could otherwise absorb unwanted substances or damage the teapot.
