A fine Shiboridashi kyuusu (squeeze-pour teapot) decorated with the hidasuki pattern, the technique of wrapping the teapot with rice straw before firing. Handmade by master artisan Tanikawa Jin, known for his expertise in both the mogake (seaweed wrapped) and hidasuki (scarlet slash) techniques. This teapot is appropriately presented in a signed paulownia wood (princess wood) box with the Tokoname kiln stamp.

Shiboridashi teapots from Tokoname are made with naturally iron-rich clay called shudei, prized for enhancing the mellow flavor of tea. This unique style of teapot is specifically designed for gyokuro and competition grade Japanese teas, offering a serene, hands-on connection to traditional Japanese tea culture.

Handmade Japanese tea wares are referred to as Kogei in Japan; the concept that beauty resides in the artisan’s work through nuances, wabi-sabi (irregularities), and defining differences between each piece.
