It is made in Japan (Ishikawa Prefecture) from Kutani porcelain. The unique feature of this teapot is its combination of Kutani ware and Kanazawa gold leaf, which has a production rate of 98% nationwide for gold leaf, and 100% for silver leaf produced in Kanazawa. The craftsmanship required to create uniformly thin gold leaf reaching a thickness of 1\/1000 mm is exceptionally skilled. Artisans can hammer a piece the size of a 10-yen coin into a square meter, a skill refined over centuries in Kanazawa's humid climate and high-quality water supply. With a history of 360 years for Kutani ware and 400 years for Kanazawa gold leaf, this item beautifully merges the traditional crafts of the Kaga Million Stones region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecognized as one of Japan's three major colored porcelain types and celebrated globally as \"Japan Kutani,\" the teapot is an excellent choice for gifts for occasions like Mother's Day, Father's Day, Respect-for-the-Aged Day, retirement celebrations, birthdays, and various milestone birthdays such as kanreki (60th), koki (70th), and other significant celebrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping \u0026amp; customs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShipped from Japan.
