White Shiboridashi
with shino-like glaze
This white shiboridashi has a shino-like glaze. I don't know where it is procuded, or who produced it. It is a finely made shiboridashi which inot used that much. The rim of the pot does not have the glave but it has not received any coloring by green tea yet.
There are no marks, cracks or chips.

One hundred year old Hobin
from Bizen
This is a one hundred year old Hobin style teapot from Bizen. The photo's clearly show that this teapot has been used for a long time. Both the teapot and the lid have a dull sound. Clearly a sign of wear and tear. There are no leaks and it is a pleasure to use.
