This is a teapot by Kato Shunji, a master craftsman of Seto ware. It is a rare piece, being a teapot in the yellow Seto style, which was Kato Shunji's specialty, and unusual for him. Although it's difficult to see due to the mottled yellow Seto glaze, there is a slight chip on the spout. Other than that, there are no noticeable cracks or chips.
