Teapot by Futaba Yukihisa

A striking expression of contemporary Japanese ceramics, this handcrafted teapot by Futaba Yukihisa embodies both sculptural presence and functional elegance. Its softly faceted form sits comfortably in the hand, while the subtly irregular contours reflect the artist’s intuitive approach to shaping clay.

The surface is adorned with a richly layered glaze—milky white cascading over vivid mineral tones of copper red and soft turquoise—creating a dynamic, almost painterly effect. Fine crackles across the glaze add depth and texture, revealing the quiet complexity of the firing process and the individuality of each piece.

Designed for mindful tea preparation, the teapot pours smoothly and invites a slower, more intentional ritual. Whether displayed as an art object or used daily, it brings warmth, character, and a sense of quiet refinement to any tea setting.

Each piece is unique, bearing the subtle marks of the artist’s hand.
