Description from the seller
Bring the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship into your tea time with this one-of-a-kind Japanese Artisan Tea Set.
• Hammered Tin Tea Caddy with Gold Leaf Motif (with scoop)
Exquisitely crafted with traditional hammering techniques, this tin tea caddy features elegant golden leaf motifs. The inner tin lid preserves freshness, while the unique hammered pattern reflects light beautifully. Comes with a matching tea scoop.
• Nerikomi Clay Kyusu Teapot (side-handle)
A striking teapot made with the nerikomi technique, blending colored clays into mesmerizing striped patterns. The side-handle (yokode) style allows smooth pouring, perfect for brewing sencha and other Japanese green teas. Signed by the artisan on the base.
This tea set combines metalwork artistry and ceramic mastery, making it not only a practical teaware set but also a collector’s item.
Ideal for tea enthusiasts, art lovers, or as a premium cultural gift.
Seller's Story
I own a collection of vintage traditional Japanese items.
A large part of my collection consists of rare and increasingly difficult-to-find pieces of cultural and historical value.
I offer these valuable and becoming-scarce treasures to collectors outside Japan.
All items are shipped directly from Japan.
Each item is carefully packed using recyclable packaging materials to ensure safe delivery. However, please note that there is a small risk of damage during transportation due to handling by the shipping carrier.
Your feedback and review would be greatly appreciated.
