Japanese teapot Kyusu Dobin

When tea means more than just a drink

Some objects carry a feeling within them – you just have to touch them. This Japanese teapot in the classic Dobin Kyusu shape is just such a piece. Lovingly handcrafted by an experienced potter just outside Tokyo, it evokes the beauty of mindfulness in every detail.

Craftsmanship meets harmony

Crafted from earthy, warm clay, this kyusu brings calm to your everyday life. Its body feels heavy and comfortable in the hand—not too bulky, not too light. The handle is integrally cast to the body, combining expert craftsmanship with design clarity. Nothing is superfluous, nothing too much—and therein lies its power.

A teapot that carries stories within it

What makes this teapot so special isn't just its form or function—it's its soul. The surface plays with light and texture: fine, leaf-like lines alternate with gentle bumps. Every inch exudes the philosophy of wabi-sabi—the beauty in transience, the dignity of imperfection.

Green tea as it was intended

This Dobin is made for Japanese green tea—and for all those moments when you want to pause. The simple elegance of the clay allows the aroma to fully express itself. No glaze inside, no frills. Just you, the water, the tea—and a pot that conveys more than just taste.

Origin with character

The artist's stamp on the bottom is a silent tribute from the potter—a sign of authenticity, craftsmanship, and dedication. It reminds us that this teapot is not an industrial product, but a unique piece with a history. You are holding more than just a teapot—you are holding lived experience, knowledge, and passion.

Dimensions for everyday life, made for the moment

With its compact dimensions of 14 x 9 cm (without handle) and a weight of 620 g, this kyusu accompanies you through small, conscious breaks. It doesn't aim to impress—it aims to make an impact. And that's exactly what it does, quietly and powerfully.
