Tokoname Teapot



@@Because we have a long history and tradition of teapot making, we still use an old unit of volume for the size of teapot in Tokoname.
@For teapot, "Gou" is the standard measure of volume, 10-Gou = 180cc, teapots under 15 Gou are small teapots, teapots 15-20 Gou are often used, teapots over 20 Gou are large pots. Our teapot catalog shows Gou for the size of teapot and please refer the left table.



@Several type of stainless strainer is used lately.Strainer made of ceramics is still popular.
