T2 x Kashiwa Craft Dobin Teapot

The pour is wonderfully smooth—no drips at all—and the unglazed clay already feels like it’s gently warming with each use, just as described. I’m excited to see how it ages.

The clay body already feels softer and more alive in my hand than any other pot I've used, and the slight asymmetry makes each pour feel uniquely personal. It brews tea with a roundness that my glazed pots just can't match.

The way the clay slowly warps with each use makes this pot feel alive in your hands, like it's learning your brewing rhythm. I've had mine for a few weeks and the surface already has a subtle, organic character that no machine-made piece could ever copy.
