Kyūsu means "teapot" in Japanese. It is a smaller style teapot with a side handle to make it easy to pour with one hand. They are most commonly used for steeping green tea like Sencha and Gyokuro.

Tokoname (meaning "smooth soil") is a famous type of traditional Japanese pottery dating back to the 12th century. It is produced in Tokoname City in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. “Shudei" is a special red clay that is produced locally in the Tokoname area. Shades of green and blue can be achieved by various blending techniques. Tokoname teapots come in a variety of sizes and shapes.
