17 Omuro Zakura Japanese Hohin Teapot

Inspired by the famous Omuro cherry blossoms of Ninna-ji Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kyoto, this delicate pale-pink piece evokes the joyful feeling of seeing cherry trees in full bloom.

Known in Japan as a *hohin*, this handleless teapot is traditionally used for brewing gyokuro and premium sencha. Because these delicate teas are typically prepared with lower-temperature water, the teapot requires no handle, giving it a beautifully clean and minimalist form.

It can also be used for brewing Chinese tea, making it a versatile addition to your tea collection.

Take a quiet moment to slow down and enjoy your favorite tea with a handcrafted NINSHU hohin—a piece that brings together the gentle beauty of Kyoto’s cherry blossoms and the timeless tradition of Japanese tea culture.
