Living with a view of the sea

The lovely round shape of this Tokoname teapot exudes an appealing charm. Admiring the seaweed waving freely on the smooth surface of the clay, one can almost hear the sound of waves lapping on the Tokoname coast. In the artisan’s careful handiwork, you can feel their quiet affection for the people who will use it.
