A handcrafted stoneware teapot by Oregon ceramicist Gil Harrison of Perkins Creek Pottery, Cottage Grove. This unique, vintage piece showcases Harrison’s mastery of form and glaze, with a speckled, earth-toned surface finished in flowing green and brown ash glazes. The organically shaped spout and sculptural lid handle add character, while the braided natural fiber handle provides a rustic, functional accent. The base carries Harrison’s impressed studio mark, affirming its authenticity. The interior is fully glazed for functionality, making this piece as practical as it is decorative. Its wabi-sabi character reflects the influence of Japanese pottery traditions, interpreted through the lens of Pacific Northwest studio craft. Very good vintage condition with no cracks or chips noted. Light surface wear consistent with age and use. Braided fiber handle shows some age but remains sturdy.
12" wide, 7" deep, and 6.5" high, not including the rope handle.
