The Banko Kiln Sencha Tea Set is a traditional Japanese tea set designed for enjoying authentic Sencha green tea. This vintage Japanese tea set includes a ceramic teapot and two porcelain cups, all handcrafted from iron-rich Banko pottery clay originating from the Edo period. The Banko Kiln Sencha Tea Set offers a unique tea experience by mellowing the flavor of green tea, enhancing its taste and aroma. The set comes beautifully presented in a tea gift box, making it an ideal present for tea lovers and collectors.
This signed Banko pottery set features a reddish-brown iron clay teapot measuring approximately 3.3 inches high, 6.5 inches wide, and 5.9 inches deep (8.5cm × 16.5cm × 15cm), weighing 11oz (312g). The two Japanese porcelain cups are 3.7 inches tall and 3 inches wide (9.5cm × 7.5cm), each weighing 6.2oz (175g). The teapot and cups are decorated with delicate fine lines and mesh-like marks, with all pieces signed in Kanji characters to verify authenticity. The white-glazed interiors of the cups allow the vibrant green color of Sencha tea to shine through.
Recent studies show that teapots made from this iron-rich clay improve the taste of green tea by softening its bitterness, making every cup smoother and more enjoyable. This vintage tea utensils set is perfect for Japanese tea ceremony enthusiasts or anyone who appreciates handcrafted Sencha sets steeped in tradition.
