The tenmoku (oil droplet) design on this teapot bears witness to Shoryu’s technique and creativity. The tenmoku design usually needs a thick glaze, however Shoryu has managed to achieve a beautiful all over effect without compromising his usual style. Extremely light and exquisitely stylish. The surface of the teapot has been treated with urushi lacquer by a traditional Urushi craftsman.
