This small tea pot is also from nanbu iron.Quite simple and beautiful!
The Japanese name of it is "Tamagonoko", and it means egg's child when I translate it literally.
It was designed by Hisao Iwashimizu, and it had been displayed at MoMA in 2000.
About lid, you can choose nanbu iron or wooden one. 
Yep I have seen them around for quite a while.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.
It may be more famous in the U.S. or European countries than in Japan.
Sometimes I find nice Japanese design not in Japan but in other countries.
