Wabi Sabi speaks to the transience of all things, and that beauty can be found and made in the most simple and basic of elements. A stone garden path. A mountain dirt road. A smoothed river rock. A pile of leaves in Autumn. This teapot. Made of natural clay with an ash glaze, the round body of the pot is flecked with brown during the the firing process, reminding us that natural beauty that can arise out of imperfection. A wraparound interior Obi Ami (ultra-fine mesh screen) filters out even the finest particle leaves and herbs from your infusion.

Best experienced by sipping tea from this pot, Wabi Sabi is everywhere...when you know where, and how to see it. In the modern classic by Leonard Koren, Wabi Sabi is an elusive concept represented perfectly by the perfect imperfection of the natural world. Witness it all here with this pot when you make tea. The sound of boiling water, the sight of unfurling tea leaves, the ephemeral aroma of tea wafting as it arcs from the dripless spout, the texture of this pot’s smooth, flecked surface. Everything, this pot, these leaves, the aroma, the taste of the brew, our very breath, is fleeting. Impermanent. And that is beautiful to know.

Wabi Sabi Teapot August 22, 2011
Reviewer: Will  
It really holds around 8 oz max of hot water, not 12. Cleaning isn't too bad and it's cute.

A Superb Teapot January 31, 2011
Reviewer: Joseph Martillotti from Lawrenceville, NJ United States  
This is one of the best teapots I have ever used. Its design is simple and elegant, the interior mesh strainer is easy to clean and the spout is virtually drip free. The natural off white and speckled coloring of the pot look great. It is perfect for brewing tea for one or two people at a time. My favorite tea to brew in this pot is Samovar's famous Ryokucha.

This is the best teapot I have ever had. December 25, 2010
Reviewer: Ian Tillman from Davis, CA United States  
I received this teapot as a gift.  It is perfectly designed, looks cool, and most importantly it makes excellent tea.  I need to buy another for work.
