Discover the perfect balance of traditional craft and modern functionality with this handcrafted side handle kyusu teapot, made for true tea lovers to brew a perfect gongfu cha session at home.
About This Side Handle Teapot
This iconic side handle (kyusu) design originated in China and became a beloved staple of Japanese tea ceremony, prized for its ergonomic grip that makes pouring smooth and intuitive. Crafted by artisans in Jingdezhen, the historic ‘Porcelain Capital’ of China, this teapot brings centuries of ceramic mastery to your daily tea routine.
Finished in a moody charcoal base with natural iron-rust textured glazing, each kiln firing creates one-of-a-kind subtle patterns that make your teapot truly unique. The rounded, minimalist silhouette blends perfectly with rustic, Japanese wabi-sabi, and modern minimalist home decor, doubling as a beautiful display piece when not in use.
