Kyusu
There are a rare few adamant potters in Tokoname that still insist on mastering every step of the artisanal process, taking it as far as making their own clay. Yamada is one of these potters.
He is currently the youngest ceramicist in Tokoname and his dedication to the craft shows exceptional promise.
Inspired by a love and respect for his father's life-time specialty in decorative containers for plants. We are eager to discover and share this young artist’s work. Definitely a bright new light to watch out for.
The artisanal aspect of these teapots makes them all unique. This why the shape and capacity may vary from one to another. Think of it as a guarantee of unique pieces, all made by hand!

Gyokuro Shuin
This multi award-winning Gyokuro is very representative of shade teas from the Uji region.
Gyokuro Okabe
Unique in Japan in the world of tea, the Gyokuro (Precious Dew) style is the result of a process to create shade for the tea plants for a few weeks. The deprivation of light creates more difficult conditions for the plants whose molecular structure changes to make room for sugars, amino acids and aromatic compounds. The leaves will offer a less bitter liquor.
