japanese teapot vintage

[Fireflower]

hello everybody, i am very excited to show this teapot i got from my grandmother, i gues that is from about 40's or 50,s.
i am quite sure that is made in japan.
unfotunately there is no lid so i cannot use it.

I do not know anything about it, but it is very pretty. And a tall pot like that you can still use without the lid. Just don't fill it too high and pour it too hard

Try aging water in it for 3 days.
Compare taste, let me know

Yeah, the spout should be low enough to still use to some extent?

You can even call it "futanashi" which means "without lid"....
