Know before you buy
The debeso filter is a half-spherical ceramic strainer built directly into the base of the teapot's spout. It allows tea leaves to expand fully inside the pot while effectively catching them during the pour for a clean, sediment-free cup.
No, this set is not dishwasher or microwave safe. Due to the delicate hand-painted gold and blue Kutani-yaki designs, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap to preserve the finish.
While this is a vintage piece, it is fully functional and designed for daily tea rituals. Its durable porcelain construction handles regular use well, provided you handle it with the care typical of fine Japanese ceramics.
This set includes two 85ml senchawan cups, making it ideal for intimate tea sessions for one or two people. The 250ml teapot capacity is perfectly sized to fill both cups simultaneously.
Eiraku is a traditional Kutani-yaki style characterized by a vibrant red glaze decorated with intricate, high-contrast gold and blue patterns. It is a classic aesthetic that emphasizes luxury and traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
