Tokoname-ware is a form of ceramic pottery that is produced in the area around the city of Tokoname in Aichi prefecture. This traditional craft comes from one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan. 

This teapot includes "banded mesh strainer" which is designed to prevent the tea leaves from flowing out. This way the functionality of the tea strainer is not affected no matter which direction the tea leaves are pushed inside the kyusu.
