Thank you for viewing. This is a Higo Shodai-yaki sencha tea set, including a side-handled kyusu (teapot), yusamashi (water cooler), and 5 yunomi (teacups), a 7-piece set. Sizes: Kyusu: Diameter approx. 7cm (including handle approx. 10.5cm) Height approx. 6cm (including lid approx. 7cm) Yusamashi: Diameter approx. 8cm (including spout approx. 9cm) Height approx. 4.5cm Yunomi: Diameter approx. 6cm Height approx. 4cm *Please forgive any slight size discrepancies as this is amateur inspection. Shodai-yaki is a pottery known for its bold and unrestrained style, using coarse clay covered with a reddish-brown iron glaze, with white or yellow glaze applied using a ladle. Recently, Shodai-yaki slipware has been attracting attention in select shops, but the history of Shodai-yaki dates back to 1632 in Kumamoto Prefecture, when the feudal lord ordered the production of pottery. After the Meiji Restoration, it lost the patronage of the domain and declined, being overshadowed by porcelain production areas such as Arita and Seto. However, it was revived by the first Chikatomo Jitaro in 1931, and after the war, several kilns were built at the foot of Mount Shodai. In 2003, it was designated as a traditional craft product by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The rough texture of the clay, which contains many small stone particles and a high iron content, and the atmospheric flowing glaze create a simple yet powerful style, resulting in a work with deep flavor. This is a tea set for brewing delicious sencha, and includes a "yusamashi" used to adjust the water temperature. The yusamashi is a tool for pouring hot water at the optimal temperature for the tea leaves, and is useful when drinking gyokuro, etc. (See the last photo for a reference product) Since it has not been used after purchase, it is in relatively good condition. There is a manufacturing flaw on the yunomi (teacup). (See photo 10) Please understand that this is a used item stored at home, and we appreciate your purchase if you are a fan of Mingei (folk art). We are also listing other traditional crafts and Mingei items in separate listings, so please consider them as well. #Market307's traditional crafts are here There is no original box, so it will be carefully packed with cushioning material for shipping.
