Ori, meaning Weave.
At 160 ml it fills one or two small Japanese tea cups (100 ml each). How to size a kyusu.
The Ori Kyusu is handcrafted by Gyokko, a potter based in Tokoname whose work we had the privilege of visiting in person. Its surface is finished with a fine, woven-like texture, pressed by hand across the entire body and lid, evoking the look and feel of traditional textile weave. Left in its natural, unglazed sandy clay tone, the piece embodies the wabi-sabi spirit of Tokoname ware. Understated, tactile, and made to be used and appreciated over time.

Volume: 160 ml
Please note: shape, colour and capacity vary a little from pot to pot. That is the nature of handmade Japanese ceramics.
Ships Australia-wide and worldwide, with free Australian shipping on orders over $100. See the full range of Japanese teapots.
Each piece is made by hand, so the glaze on yours will differ from the photograph. That variation is the character of the piece, not a flaw.
