Coral

Coral is a handmade teapot inspired by the intricate forms and textures of sea corals. The single handle allows the teapot to be held from all directions, overhead, from the left or from the right, reflecting the many ways different cultures handle a teapot.

Coral is made of coil-constructed, altered, carved and textured earthenware, finished with shino glaze and fired in oxidation.
