Patterns and Styles

Each artists who creates a teapot decides on a pattern that best suits the shape and style of the teapot. None of these pots are mass produced so we never see more than 1 or 2 of the same designs come through. Because of this, when you see a teapot that you like you can enjoy the knowledge that you will be one of the only people to own that particular shape and style

Teapot Infusers


Each teapot has its own unique style of infuser. Some have hand made infusers and others have metallic infusers that are inserted just inside the spout or wrapped around the inside of the teapot. Either infuser is fine for making your tea, but some people may prefer to have their ceramic teapot made entirely of ceramic. Teapots are a personal choice so choose what you like best. The pot on the left has a pull out metallic infuser, the middle pot has a handmade infuser and the one on the right is stainless steel against the spout

Features and Details

Each teapot has its own special feature and detail that some of the other teapots may not have. Some have hand made infusers, some use special types of clays and others use other materials like bamboo. Because these teapots aren't mass produced, you will often find the artists hand engraved signature on the base, such as the photo on the left. The middle teapot has a hand woven vine handle, the teapot itself is made out of three different kinds of clay. The pot on the right has a handmade string to keep your lid from slipping to the ground

Japanese Traditional Tea Cups


Many of our teacups are handmade and hand painted. Smaller cups are more traditional than larger western style mugs. Drinking your tea from a small cup can give you a more relaxed feeling than drinking from an oversized mug. Your teacups do not have to match with the design or colour of your teapot. Choose a cup that will make you happy rather than one that matches with your teapot. Here are some examples of traditional handmade teacups. Look at the shopping are for many different designs and shapes. Also handmade glass cups are available in the Hario teapot section - Click Here

Matcha Bowls

Matcha Bowls are a very special Japanese tea item. They are used in traditional Japanese Tea Ceremonies to make the tea Matcha, hence the name 'Matcha Bowl'. They are beautiful to look at and an enjoyment to drink from. Each bowl has something special about it just like the teapots. The bowl on the left has a stone ground base. The bowl on the right is made of a glazed Raku Clay. For more information about Matcha Bowls, Click Here, to read about Matcha
