Produce Station Stoneware Teapot #9 by Artist Billy Cho

This wheel-thrown stoneware teapot features a rich, dark iron oxide gloss glaze that pools deeply in curves and gathers at the foot and handle attachments, creating natural variation from warm umber to near-black. The darker surface has a quiet sheen, allowing the form itself to remain the focal point—grounded, balanced, and made for daily use. An arched handle rises comfortably above the lid, offering an easy pour and a sense of lift that contrasts with the teapot’s solid weight. Subtle traces of the throwing process remain visible beneath the glaze, a reminder of the hand that shaped it. Durable, food-safe, and thoughtfully proportioned, this teapot is designed for slow mornings, shared tables, and the simple ritual of brewing—where function and material speak without excess.
