Collection: Tokoname ware teapot work list

Tokoname ware from Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture, which is one of the six ancient kilns of Japan. Among them, the teapot that boasts the largest market share in Japan is the most famous, and the living national treasure Jozan Yamada (3rd generation) was born.

The vermilion mud that is characteristic of Tokoname ware teapots is highly water resistant even without glaze, and the iron oxide contained in the teapot reacts with tannin, a component of tea, giving it a mellow taste.

In Tokoname ware, which is the most suitable production area for making teapots, new works are still being created by various artists. Lovely round shapes, beautiful carvings and paintings. You can also see works with modern designs that can be used not only for Japanese tea but also for black tea.

Why don't you spend a relaxing time with Japan's best teapot, which is wonderful to look at and use?
