Handcrafted from Tokoname clay, this water cooler is finished with a deep black glaze highlighted by subtle gold accents. A traditional tea vessel, it allows boiling water to cool to the ideal temperature for brewing green tea. When poured into the cooler, the water naturally lowers to around 90°C, then further cools to approximately 80°C when transferred to a cold teapot. Best paired with teaware from the same collection for a cohesive tea experience.
