n Japan, Yixing teapots were imported from the Muromachi period (1336-1573), which continued until the Meiji period (1868-1912),
The latter type of tea pots served as a model for the Japanese tea pouring pots, which were made in various regions.
In the Edo period (1603-1867), the Yokote teapot came to be made.
The Yokote teapots in circulation today were made after the Edo period,
Later, they became the mainstream of Japanese tea containers and came to be called kyusu (teapot).

This product is a ceramic ware.
The raw material of pottery is clay, which is inherently water absorbent.
Therefore, it is glazed to keep water out.

The firing temperature is lower than that of porcelain because the temperature is adjusted to the clay and glaze.
Since ancient times, it has been said that fired tea utensils make tea more delicious,
