Pot - The simple, rounded form - Iron - Iron Furo Kama Tea Kettle

A beautiful vintage Japanese cast iron tea kettle, known as a Kama, traditionally used in the Japanese tea ceremony.

This iron kettle features a distinctive surface decorated with countless small raised, grain-like textures, giving the body a rich tactile appearance and a strong sense of traditional craftsmanship. The simple, rounded form reflects the understated beauty and functional elegance of Japanese tea utensils.

The kettle is fitted with a copper alloy lid, finished with a charming knob set on a plum blossom-shaped base. The delicate floral detail provides an elegant contrast to the dark and textured iron body.

This type of kettle, often referred to as a Furo Kama, is designed for use with a Furo, a traditional portable brazier used in Japanese tea ceremonies.

With its combination of textured cast iron, warm-toned metal details, and traditional tea ceremony design, this piece would make a wonderful addition to a Japanese tea utensil collection, a wabi-sabi interior, or a display of traditional Japanese crafts.
