Teapots

Tokoname Kyusu Yoko

Sold Out £100.00

Kyusu are traditional Japanese teapots, usually made from ceramic or porcelain and commonly found in the distinctive side handled shape that these examples show.

These are all Tokoname-ware, a distinctive form of Japanese pottery from the city of Tokoname in the Aichi Prefecture. This form is unique to the area and is well-regarded within Japan, with Tokoname being recognised as one of Japan's most noteworthy centres for the ceramic industry.

These teapots are hand-finished and made to an extremely high standard, each one being individually decorated using a range of different techniques and styles.

This example is a small, matt-finish dark grey teapot with a capacity of 250ml. It has hand-etched decoration and an inbuilt ceramic strainer in the spout to catch leaves within the pot.

This finely crafted teaware collection is characterised by the round shapes and textures reminiscent of pebble stones.

Created by the handwork of skilled Japanese craftsmen, the shape of the spout is made easy to pour and free of drips. The faint touches of rust and unique colours, in harmony with the round soft shape, create a pleasant scenery expanding your tea experience.

The stainless steel strainer allows the tea leaves to bloom widely inside the pot creating a more flavourful tea. As it comes with a strainer made of stainless steel, the Atelier Tete Teapot is suitable for everyday use as well as for special teatime with guests.

Creations brought to life by handwork allure with rich expressions. Nuance, soft texture and subtle presence - these are all things celebrated in the Atelier Tete Series. All the pieces in the collection are created by Japanese craftsmen with highly cultivated skills and a long history of tradition and glazed one by one by hand, meaning the colours of each piece differ subtly giving a uniqueness to the piece. The pieces in the Atelier Tete Collection take their inspiration from the beauty of nature.
