Nirvan Tea Pot

A minimalistic teapot to serve you steaming hot tea after a long day. A craft inspired by a ubiquitous yellow vessel found in Indian kitchens, colloquially known as the Barni, Jaddi, Kola Jaadi, Bharnai or Jaadeelu. Our artist from Auroville has used her fond memories of watching a wise matriarch carefully store handmade pickles in off-coloured mustard jars to create tableware. Her pieces invoke the same feeling of quiet contemplation experienced while waiting for the pickle to cure in a quaint corner of the verandah. We mould the essence of the venerated Barni, into exquisite stoneware, with each piece manifesting a distinct mustard glaze.
