Elevate your contemporary ritual with the "Donguri" Japanese tea set, a soulful blend of 300-year Banko-yaki heritage and functional minimalism. Handcrafted by Nankei Pottery (est. 1913), the unique acorn-shaped kyusu features a 430cc capacity, perfect for a variety of teas, from delicate green to robust black. Its unglazed "Kuroneru" clay naturally mellows bitterness, while the ambidextrous handle ensures a graceful pour for any user. Customize your Japanese tea set by choosing between two chawan styles to match your lifestyle. The traditional Kumidashi cups (80cc) allow you to serve up to five guests per brew, embodying classic Japanese hospitality. For a more generous, modern experience, the curved F-Shape cups (150cc) provide two satisfying servings per brew, fitting perfectly in your palm. This artisanal set transforms your daily tea moment into a serene sanctuary of wellness.

Banko-yaki: 300 Years of Tradition in Japanese Pottery and Tea Culture
Banko-yaki is a type of pottery that originated during the Edo period and boasts a history of over 300 years. Its name reflects a wish for “eternal prosperity and excellence.” Although it experienced a period of decline, the craft was revitalized by kilns in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, where it flourished alongside the rise of sencha tea culture. Banko-yaki teapots are renowned for their distinctive combination of durability and lightness, and, together with Tokoname-yaki, they continue to play a vital role in supporting Japan's tea culture.
