【Hard to Find Item】Nambu Tekki Kamasada Yuzu Skin ⭐︎Used only twice, almost new

This is a rare item that many people have been searching for for years.
I am not in a hurry to sell, so I will list it for a while.

Although the price is higher than the original retail price of ¥99,000 (tax included) due to the premium, it has been significantly reduced from the purchase price.

Unlike items that have already been used for X years, this item has not been used extensively, so you can enjoy developing its character from the beginning.

My sister purchased this item in the fall of 2025 from a shop that deals in antique and rare tableware, run by a friend.
She purchased it as completely unused and has only used it twice, so it is almost new.

It comes in its original Kamasada cosmetic box and includes a new leaflet.

The Yuzu-hada (citron skin) finish has significant individual variations, with many examples having a rough and coarse texture. However, this particular piece is an excellent find, with a fine, smooth, and glossy jet-black finish all over.

Among Kamasada's tetsubin (iron kettles), I personally love the Yuzu-hada model the most for its simple yet plump roundness, exquisite texture, and voluminous appearance – everything about it is lovely. I have been using my own Yuzu-hada for over 5 years.
The hot water made with Kamasada's Yuzu-hada is the most delicious, and the fact that it becomes a healthy, well-balanced hot water with good iron content by simply using tap water is an economical and wonderful feature!

This is a particularly rare type, and waiting several years for a reservation is common, and even then, it may not be obtainable.

A knowledgeable shop employee, a fan of Kamasada tetsubin, told me that even if red rust appears, it is perfectly fine to continue using it (in fact, you shouldn't polish it off). Over time, scale will form, and with continued use, it will develop a beautiful, flavorful patina.

While it is in beautiful condition, iron changes its appearance once used. Therefore, those looking for a completely new and unused item may want to refrain from purchasing.

My sister was satisfied after using it twice, which is why it is now for sale. However, as it is a very rare and truly hard-to-obtain item, I will leave it listed for a while for those who are searching. If there are no interested buyers, I plan to withdraw it and make it my second Yuzu-hada.

I have meticulously inspected the item for listing and have taken close-up photos with strong lighting where necessary to clearly show any points of concern.
The whitish pattern inside the spout is from the manufacturing process.
Please review the images and consider purchasing only after you are satisfied.
