This handmade tea pot was crafted exclusively for Kettl by master potter Yoshiyuki Shimizu, using Amakusa clay sourced from Kumamoto. Shimizu-san mixes porcelain and clay to create a unique, clean, and beautiful piece.  The tea pot is glazed on the inside, creating an ideal tea pot for everyday use.  The inner glaze will prevent lingering aromas after use, allowing this tea pot to be used across a wide variety of teas, including herbal.

Yoshiyuki Shimizu trained under Atsuya Hamada, the son of renowned Living National Treasure Shoji Hamada. He now creates his work from his studio in Dosenbo, Minamiyamashiro, located in the Uji region.
