Japanese ceramic studio Nankei specialise in the production of these beautiful teapots that are made from an iron rich clay body.

This clay is the reason they are able to produce a teapot without a glaze, naturally turning black during the firing and offering a smooth surface with tiny irregularities inside that mellow the taste of the tea and make it slightly less astringent.

The unique shape of the Brass Handle Teapot makes it perfect for green or black tea. Inside is a traditional style tea strainer attached at the entrance of the spout. Clip the brass handle This a teapot that will only improve with age.

Please note: Each piece is handmade and may feature small markings from the making process. Ships directly from the OEN studio.
