Brown Arare Pattern Teapot

This vintage Japanese teapot (tetsubin) is made from cast iron and features a classic arare (hailstone) surface texture. Likely produced in Iwate Prefecture, a region famous for traditional ironwork, it has a wide, rounded form and curved handle that gives it a balanced, sculptural presence.

Whether used for brewing tea or simply displayed on a shelf, it’s a timeless piece of Japanese design and craftsmanship.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Slight patina appropriate with time.

Dimensions: 5.5”H x 5.5” base diameter
