The Ultimate Extra-Flat Teapot Crafted by a Traditional Artisan of Tokoname Ware
Tobikanna Carving – Black Clay – 200cc
Introducing the “Ultimate Extra-Flat Teapot,” crafted by a certified traditional artisan of Tokoname ware.
Tokoname teapots are said to mellow the taste of tea because the clay contains a high amount of iron.
While most teapots are round in shape, this teapot has been created in a low, flat form—the ultimate shape designed to draw out the maximum flavor of the tea leaves.
Among flat teapots, this one is made in an especially flat “extra-flat” style.
Its wide diameter allows the tea leaves to open fully and more quickly, enabling better expansion and resulting in a richer, more flavorful infusion.
Even with a small amount of hot water, the tea leaves spread easily, making it easier to extract their full flavor.
Because the leaves open faster and more widely, this teapot can also be used for mizudashi cold-brew tea.
“Mizudashi cold tea” refers to sencha brewed with water rather than hot water. By not using hot water, the bitter components of the tea are suppressed, producing a sencha with enhanced sweetness and umami.
With a capacity of 200cc, it is a generously sized teapot for single-person use.
Since metal strainers can affect the taste of tea, a finely crafted ceramic strainer is built into the inside of the spout.
Both this strainer and the teapot body itself are entirely handmade, embodying the refined skills of a seasoned craftsman.
Because the mouth diameter, overall diameter, and base diameter are nearly the same, the inside of the teapot is easy to wash and dry, helping maintain cleanliness at all times and ensuring excellent hygiene.
The surface features a “tobikanna” pattern.
“Tobikanna” is a decorative carving technique in which a pattern is incised into the surface. When trimming a vessel set on a potter’s wheel, if the angle at which the trimming tool (hera) meets the surface becomes large, the tool may bounce upward due to the wheel’s rotation, leaving distinctive marks on the surface that resemble adze cuts.
This effect is called “tobikanna” or “tochiri.”
The lid is carefully fitted to prevent wobbling and made slightly heavier to resist falling off, and the spout is designed to minimize dripping.
Although it is an extra-flat type, the overall form is softly rounded, giving a gentle impression.
It is also highly functional, allowing tea to be poured with one hand while holding the lid in place with the thumb.
Thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail, this is truly an “ultimate teapot” that can be used for many years without ever growing tiresome.

由常滑烧的传统工艺师亲手制作的“究极极平型急须”为您介绍。
常滑烧的急须因含铁量高，被认为能够使茶汤口感更加醇和圆润。
大多数急须为圆形，而这款急须为了最大限度地引出茶的滋味，被制作成低矮扁平的形状，是一种堪称究极形态的急须。
在平型急须之中，它更属于特别扁平的“极平型”。
由于直径较大，茶叶能够最大限度且更迅速地舒展开来，伸展性更佳，从而更美味地萃取出茶汤。
即使注入的热水量较少，茶叶也更容易舒展，更易引出茶叶本身的滋味。
茶叶展开迅速且幅度更大，因此也适用于“冷泡茶”。
所谓“冷泡茶”，即以冷水冲泡的煎茶。由于不使用热水，可以抑制茶的苦涩成分，使茶汤成为甜味与鲜味更为丰富的煎茶。
容量为200cc，是一款从容舒适的一人用急须。
若使用金属滤网，金属气味可能会影响茶的风味，因此在出水口内侧配有陶制的精致滤网。
该滤网与急须本体全部为手工制作，凝聚了熟练工匠的精湛技艺。
口径、整体直径与底部直径几乎相同，因此急须内部容易清洗且易于干燥，能够始终保持清洁，非常卫生。
表面施有“飞鉋（とびかんな）”纹样。
“飞鉋”是一种刻划纹样的装饰技法。当器物置于拉坯轮上进行削制时，若刮刀（篦）的接触角度较大，刮刀会随着转轮的旋转被弹起，在器物表面留下仿佛以手斧削刻般的削痕。
这种技法称为“飞鉋”或“跳刀纹（とちり）”。
壶盖制作得紧密贴合、不易滑落且无晃动感；壶嘴则设计为不易滴漏的结构。
虽为极平型，但整体呈现圆润造型，散发出柔和的氛围。
单手持壶时也可用拇指按住壶盖进行倒茶，兼具良好的实用性。
从细节处精心构思制作，是一件经久耐用、百看不厌，堪称“究极急须”的精品之作。
