Wabi Sabi Tsubo
Antique Japanese cast iron tea pot that has been left out in the weather for some time. With its wabi sabi charm, it is now mostly suitable for use as an ikebana vessel (some suggestions are shown). This type of teapot, often used in the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, is called a tetsu-kyusu or hiratsubo (or simply “tsubo”, meaning pot or vessel). It has an enameled interior, and is not suitable for boiling water (a cast iron kettle called a tetsubin is used for this purpose).
