Hi,
You have a square japanese teapot which I am interested. Please contact me if it is for sale.
Thanks!!!
Hi, Kyle! Regarding your question, the teapot is in Argentina an it is on sale. Please, feel free to ask any other information about it.
Beautiful range of Japanese teapots! Perfect accessories for a Japanese-themed home decor: tatami mats, ikebana, a Hokusai print, noren…. (Sounds like a tranquil setting, doesn’t it?)
BTW, I love that plant in a teapot idea.
Interested to exchange ideas with people who use Art Deco pieces for tea ceremony, also any Japanese people/group into Art Deco?
