Handcrafted Aged Metallic Japanese Kyusu (急須) Side Handle Teapot

This compact 6oz (175ml) kyusu teapot is a perfect balance of traditional Japanese tea culture and rustic artistry, designed for smooth single-serve or small-batch brewing.

Distinctive Design & Aesthetic

Crafted from high-quality ceramic with a hand-applied reactive metal glaze, this kyusu features a one-of-a-kind mottled aged finish: deep charcoal and warm bronze tones blend in soft, uneven patterns, creating a rich vintage-inspired look that no two teapots share exactly. The clean cylindrical silhouette and traditional side handle design follow classic Japanese kyusu proportions, balancing understated style with ergonomic comfort.

Functional Details for Perfect Brewing

Ergonomic side handle: Fits comfortably in one hand, giving you full control over pouring angle and flow for mess-free serving
Built-in fine stainless steel mesh filter: Traps even small tea leaves perfectly, leaving you with smooth, clear cup of tea every time without extra strainers
Compact 6oz (175ml / 5.5 x 3 inch) capacity: Ideal for daily solo brewing, or sharing a small pot with one guest, keeping tea warm longer than larger teapots

The dense ceramic body holds heat steadily to bring out the full flavor of your favorite sencha, gyokuro, hojicha, or any other loose leaf tea, while the stable glaze is food-safe and easy to clean after use.

Whether you’re building a traditional Japanese tea set, decorating a minimalist tea space, or looking for a unique artisanal piece for daily brewing, this kyusu brings rustic Japanese wabi-sabi charm to every tea moment.
