IROIRO Cylindrical Japanese Teapot 15.5 fl oz

Rooted in the ceramic tradition of Tokoname, this teapot highlights the clarity and depth that unglazed stoneware brings to tea. Its clean, cylindrical silhouette offers a calm, modern presence, sized at 460 ml (15.5 fl oz) to comfortably serve two or three people. Available in beige, gray, and black, each shade carries a quiet character, ranging from grounding to airy, while remaining understated enough to harmonize with any interior. The soft tones of the IROIRO series complement various spaces and styles of living.

The teapot's creation blends refined molds with small-team craftsmanship. Rather than dividing the work into strict single tasks, staff members are trained to handle multiple stages, ensuring smoother production and stronger quality control at every step. Inside, a precise ceramic mesh filters even fine tea leaves without introducing any metallic taste, allowing the tea’s natural aroma to emerge fully.

Despite the efficiency of the workshop, key steps rely entirely on skilled hands: attaching the knob, adjusting the fit of the lid, and the subtle futazuri (lid rubbing) process that achieves a perfect, satisfying seal. Look closely and you’ll see mineral grains glimmer softly in the light. The form is simple and pared back, making it easy to clean, wide enough for the hand to slip inside, and effortless to integrate into daily tea rituals. It encourages moments of clarity and quiet, offering a small pause in a busy day and a gentle lift each time you reach for it.

In Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture, the leading region for Japanese teapot production with nearly 90 percent of the domestic share, JINSUI carries forward a legacy that began in the Edo period. Using the fine clay and inherited craftsmanship that define Tokoname pottery, the kiln continues to create teaware such as ceramic teapots, teacups, and tea canisters, balancing precision and minimalist design. Every delicate piece invites you to enjoy toki-wasure—moments when time softly slips away over tea.
