This is a teapot by the artist Kirika Kitai. It has a wide mouth, making it easy to put tea leaves in and take them out, and it pours well, allowing for quick brewing. The lid is also designed to stay in place. The crackle glaze has a nice feel and offers the enjoyment of "growing" it (aging and developing character with use). It hasn't been used much. Full capacity is about 92ml. Mitsutomi Osamu Takashi Ichikawa Gafu Ito Kanjo Omata Tsuyoshi Takagi Chinese teaware, teapot Keisuke Iwata
