.

Koushin, with his exceptional skills, unique approach and creativity, has created unique artistic teapots with stunning marble patterns.

Their appearance and surface texture are reminiscent of cast iron teapots, while the delicate seaweed motifs give them a very distinctive and unique character.

These are very elegant works that you will be hard-pressed to find in today's production. These works are now rare, even in Japan itself, which only proves his individuality and originality. Although Koshin died in 2024, he left a remarkable contribution to the history of Japanese tea culture through his art and excellent craftsmanship.
