Ausverkauft

Handmade. Thin and light body (107g) and very detailed work.

The artist used 2 kind of soil, one is red clay(朱泥), the other is mountain sand （山砂）which is shown like white dot. No glazing.

The design of the joint of the spout and handle to the body is unique. The artist presses the soil with a spatula with momentum to connect it. Every spatula pattern on joint is made in one shot.

Make taste of tea round and richer, especially green tea.

Lid color is originally made as same as the body (red). Later it was smoked in black (fired 2nd time).

Beautiful contrast of color. Natural soil color makes you feel quiet and calm.
