A small kyusu in dark stoneware under a teal reactive glaze that breaks and speckles differently on every pot. At 150 ml it holds roughly two small cups, which is the point: gongfu brewing wants a short steep in a small vessel, poured out completely, then repeated.
Features
- Teal reactive glaze over a dark stoneware body, speckled where the glaze breaks
- Integral side handle, moulded as part of the body rather than attached
- 150 ml, sized for two small cups and a short repeated steep
- Flat lid with a low knob that sits flush in the opening
- Unglazed foot ring, so the pot sits flat without scratching a tray
- Unglazed foot ring, so it sits flat on a tray without scratching it
