For many years I have been dealing with pitchers. One of the biggest challenges for ceramic design is connecting high aesthetic standards with good functionality. Countless prototypes line the way to my current models. In Japan, I learned to appreciate the side handle of the „Kyusu“ and have now adopted it for all of my teapots.

VIENNESE JUG The ideal basic form for a pouring vessel, a triangle put on it´s tip. It´s unglazed and finely sanded brim an eye-catcher. Underlined is the sophistication of the fully glazed bottom. The cover, anchored by a notch stays firm even when tilting the jug up to a 90 degree angle. A slot with a loop provides support for teabags, a depression in the cover can also double as storage. White glaze inside so the siething time and tea color is controllable. Through its wide opening the pot can easily be cleaned. Available for both right-and left-handed. Semifinalist V.
