    It’s not really hot tea season anymore but I felt like practicing my #teapot making skills—and yes, I still consider it practice. I’m always tweaking the design.

    With this iteration, I thickened the handle for comfort & durability, as I’ve been doing with my mugs and pitchers. I also added a lid catch that you can barely see beneath the rim, to the right of the knob.

    The bodies of my teapots are modeled after African water pots.

    A handcrafted clay teapot with intricate geometric patterns and a decorative lid sits on a wooden shelf. The teapot features a curved handle and a spout, both with subtle surface texture. The teapot is at the leather-hard stage—a rich brown color. It has not been fired.
