The Japanese culture has a  long tradition of providing the best and remarkable history of tea pots and  tea sets up till today, they have only one rival which are the Children tea sets. The imperial Japanese court were caught in the fancy of the Chinese tea tradition and since then many kinds of seat sets have been ,manufactured in Japan.  The Japanese name for tea set or tea pot is “ dobin” and the earliest japanese tea set were those designed with study handles and disk-shaped bodies. A knob is often attached to the lid, hence the user of the tea pot can have access to the interior.    Some japanese tea set do come with tea pots that have two handles. These pots are regarded as the KIYUSU and they originate from the pot making region of Nagoya and the tea sets are designed  with some red-burnt substances for perfect finishing. Since Japan became the country of clay and heavily glazed ceramic materials, getting Japanese tea sets thus become more of a fashionable business than just drinking tea with them.  Green tea is often prepared from such heavily glazed ceramic Japanese tea sets and they have proven to be durable over the years. Though the colour of such pots often changed to bright green after prolonged usage for the preparation of green tea, this however does not change the characteristic features of the tea sets.    Some Japanese tea sets are made from solid materials which are able to conduct heat very well, others are made from more fragile components which make them easily breakable.
