Banko super fine diamond-cut hiramaru teapot by Iroku IV
A supremely crafted teapot from a kiln with a history spanning over 90 years.
The surface is adorned with precise, ultra-fine diamond cuts that catch the light, creating a subtle and elegant sheen. This piece is a clear expression of craftsmanship refined through generations.
Iroku IV continues the diamond-cut technique inherited from his father, Iroku III, who himself succeeded Iroku II, the master who pioneered many of the intricate cutting techniques still produced today. Through this lineage, the tradition and spirit of the kiln live on in the hands of the present master.

Comes in a signed wooden box.
Hand-crafted in Mie pref. Japan by Master craftsman recognized by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan, Mori Iroku IV, who learned various cut techniques from his father, Mori Iroku III (1936-2014)
