This teapot was fired in a wood soda kiln at Pleasant Hill Pottery and came out okay but a little dry so I put it back into the fire! Its second round was at Lane Community College in a gas soda kiln where I added charcoal during the cooling. It came out much better! I nearly kept this for an exhibition but decided to let it go.

This is a perfect size pot for two people. It will make 2 large cups of tea whenever you need!

It has a built in strainer so that it functions perfectly with loose leaf tea.

I do not glaze the insides of my teapots because they build up a natural patina over time and use. The unglazed surface takes on tannins from tea and can give back some flavour over time… tea will taste better in the teapot the more you use it! Just like a well seasoned cast iron pan.

My pots are microwave, dishwasher and oven safe. I high fire them until they’re vitrified, around 2350°F.

If a pot you like is sold out, email me and I can make you a similar one! I also take commissions of all sorts; please email me if you have an idea.

I ship with USPS and UPS and send tracking information after sending each order.

I ship internationally; it’s no problem, but it may require a little extra postage. It’s hard to estimate as it changes from country to country. For international orders, I will contact you if there is a discrepancy between what you pay and the actual cost.
