Thank you for viewing. This is a Yokkaichi Banko-yaki purple clay teapot, a traditional craft item, made by Shoryu. I used it for several years after purchasing it, and then stored it at home. There are some scratches and stains, so please refer to the photos. You can see something like a crack on the underside of the lid, but I'm not sure if it's a crack or a scratch. - Color: Brown and green gradation - Material: Pottery - Shape: Round teapot - Spout: Fine spout Thank you for viewing.
