Tokoname-yaki Teapot
"tobikanna" carving pattern by Tokuta
This piece is by Tokuta Fujita, a Tokoname-yaki potter highly regarded for his refined forms and meticulous craftsmanship.
Though compact in size, it features delicate decorative details and is fired using a reduction technique, giving rise to a distinctive finish. Depending on the angle and light, it reveals a subtle, silvery sheen reminiscent of burnished metal, enhancing its quiet presence and elegant character.
The “Tobikanna” (chattered carving) pattern on the sides, created while the wheel is turning, offers a fine texture that adds a unique individuality, beautifully accentuating the well-balanced form.

About the Artist
Fujita Tokuta (藤田 徳太), TOKUTA-KILN
Fujita Tokuta, born in 1975, is one of Tokoname’s younger kyusu (teapot) craftsmen.
He began studying Tokoname pottery in 1994, but it was only in the early 2010s that his work expanded to include teapots—the hallmark of Tokoname-yaki. From creating traditional mogake motifs on unglazed yakishime clay to experimenting with his own unique glazing techniques, Mr. Tokuta explores a wide range of styles while honoring Tokoname’s rich ceramic heritage.
Fujita Tokuta (藤田 徳太), TOKUTA-KILN
Fujita Tokuta, geboren 1975, gehört zu den jüngeren Kyusu-Handwerkern aus Tokoname.
Seit 1994 widmet er sich der Tokoname-Keramik, doch erst Anfang der 2010er Jahre erweiterte er sein Schaffen um Teekannen – das charakteristische Herzstück der Tokoname-yaki Tradition. Von klassischen Mogake-Mustern auf unglasiertem Yakishime-Ton bis hin zu eigenen Glasurtechniken arbeitet Herr Tokuta in einer großen stilistischen Bandbreite und verbindet dabei Tradition mit persönlicher Handschrift.
🔸常滑焼 TOKONAME-YAKI - A tradition of quality
Tokoname (常滑) is located near Chubu International Airport in southern Nagoya, Aichi Prefcture. High quality earthenware has been produced here since the 12th century, and still now, Tokoname is a center of pottery production in Japan.
Tokoname is one of Japan's six most important ancient kiln towns - the others are Bizen (備前), Echizen (越前), Seto (瀬戸), Shigaraki (信楽) and Tanba (丹波) - had the largest output of ceramics of any kiln town in the Edo Period (1600-1868).
In particular, Tokoname used to be the main production site for ceramic water pipes. In modern times, it is known around the world for its ornaments such as tea sets and beckoning cats.
