This is a straw stripe sencha cup from Sekiun Kiln.

It is called ``straw stripe'' because the vertical lines look like rows of straw. It is a simple pattern painted with three colored lines of red, green, and blue on a soft milky white color.


Straw stripe is a traditional pattern that has been produced in Seto, Aichi Prefecture since the late Edo period (around 1800). Even today, it is often seen in Seto ware and Mino ware. In Seto and Mino, thick lines and thin lines are often drawn alternately, and the color of the lines varies depending on the kiln.

This sencha cup has a slightly curved spout, making it the perfect angle for drinking tea. It is made using a potter's wheel, and the surface is scraped and shaped. The scratch marks on the bottom are beautiful. Only the bottom is unglazed, and the feel of the clay feels good in your hand.



The thin lines of the straw stripe, interpreted in the Kyoto style, and the small, neat shape combine to create a sencha cup with a sophisticated atmosphere. These are handmade vessels that allow you to feel the aesthetic sense of Kyoto.

FAQ

Which type of of tea can I brew with the teapot?

It can be used for any type of tea. However, unglazed pottery is more likely to absorb the flavor of the tea leaves. By using different tea utensils for each type of tea, you can enjoy the flavor of the tea to the fullest.

For example, in the case of Japanese tea, sencha, fukamushicha, genmaicha, and gyokuro are all in the same family, but since hojicha has a strong roasted aroma, we recommend using a different tea utensil.

However, glazed pottery or porcelain tea utensils do not absorb the flavor of the tea leaves, so they are suitable for brewing various types of tea.

How do you wash a teapot?

Please wash the teapot with water, without using detergent. Ceramic teapots easily absorb detergent ingredients, which can affect the flavor of the tea.

Tea leaves remaining in the teapot are the main cause of tea stains. After brewing tea, we recommend removing the tea leaves once they have cooled and rinsing them with water.

Moisture remaining in the teapot can cause mold. Turning the teapot upside down will help it dry faster.

We do not recommend washing it in the dishwasher. Please wash by hand.

Can I remove tea stains from a teapot?

Here's how to remove tea stains.

1. In a bowl or pot, mix 24g of baking soda with 1 liter of water at 30-40°C.

*Do not use aluminum or Teflon-coated pots as they will react with baking soda.

2. Leave the teapot in the water mentioned in step 1 for 30-60 minutes.

3. Wipe off the tea stains with a soft sponge or cotton swab. Do not use hard sponges or brushes.

4. Rinse the teapot with water.

5. Thoroughly dry the teapot.

*Baking soda water may irritate your hands, so wear rubber gloves.
