Hand-Painted Bone China Teapot with Horse Motif – Japanese Artisan Signed, White Glaze Kyusu
This Japanese bone china teapot showcases a lively hand-painted horse motif, rendered in expressive brushstrokes over a soft white glazed surface. The composition reflects traditional East Asian symbolism, where horses represent vitality, perseverance, and forward movement.
Crafted from fine bone china porcelain, this teapot is valued for its neutral material properties - it does not absorb aroma or alter the taste of tea. This makes it especially suitable for drinkers who enjoy switching between different tea types such as sencha, hojicha, or Chinese green teas.
The form is balanced and functional, with a smooth-pouring spout and well-fitted lid. An artisan’s seal is present on the base, indicating individual craftsmanship rather than mass production.
A refined yet practical piece, suitable for daily tea sessions, minimalist tea settings, or as a thoughtful gift for tea and ceramic collectors.
