Hishimon Kyusu Teapot

This exquisite Japanese Kyusu teapot is a testament to the beauty of traditional handmade craftsmanship. Featuring the distinctive Hishimon pattern, a geometric design consisting of interlocking diamond shapes, it reflects the elegance of Japanese artistry. The pattern is hand-painted in Gosu blue, a deep and vibrant indigo pigment historically used in Japanese ceramics, adding both depth and sophistication to the piece.

The teapot’s side-handle design offers ergonomic ease, making it ideal for controlled one-handed pouring, as is common in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. Its slightly rounded body tapers toward the base, providing stability, while the wide, angled spout ensures a smooth, drip-free pour. The lid features the same Hishimon design, maintaining a harmonious aesthetic and balance throughout the piece. Crafted from high-quality porcelain, this teapot combines durability with the lightweight feel expected from fine ceramics.

Each piece is hand-painted by on experienced and skilful ceramics expert. You can see the detail of each brush stroke and the long time it takes to create this piece of functional art as each item is painted one at a time.

The matching small teacup is sold separately.
