I purchased a sweet little hobin (had to edit, Drax! ) off ebay, Bizen-Yaki. Holds 1.5 ounces (45 ml), less with leaves. It is ... precocious! Next smallest, a Deishi Hobin (and edited again) that holds a little over 2 ounces, and less with leaves.

As I posted in another topic just a little while ago, I want to pick up a small kyusu of Japanese origin, but I do have a few non Japanese kyusu that hold as little as 90 ml (without leaves).

The Tokoname site has a bunch of really nice ones, they are not cheap. Hojo has a few too ... and they cost even more.

You are wise to stay on guard, Chip, for I always lurk in the shadows, waiting to leap out and shake my finger sternly at those who would deviate from the way.

Back on topic, everybody has me beat... the smallest I've seen (or have) is the shiboridashi I got from Petr Novak, which is 3 oz...

I have a Houbin that holds roughly 80-90 ml when empty. I have not seen much smaller, and for Japanese teas I am not sure I would really ever want/ need anything smaller than that.

I so want a bunch of those little kyusus from Dens, because they're cute. So far, have managed to avoid buying them simply for cuteness, because I really don't NEED one, let alone a bunch of them, but next order, I may be seized by a fit of weakness.....
