Nankei Pottery was founded in 1913 and has worked with clay in Mie Prefecture for over a century. In 1972, they turned their focus to kyusu teapots, refining their own clay blends and forming techniques rooted in Banko ware tradition.
Their approach is simple: tools for daily use should help you pause, breathe, and return to yourself.
Whether for tea or coffee, each piece is shaped by that same intention — quiet forms, balanced proportions, and materials that grow more familiar with time.
