Dobin (⼟瓶)
Dobin literally translates to "earthen bottle or jar" and refers to a type of teapot with a round body and a handle, frequently made of bamboo, that attaches to ceramic lugs on the top of the vessel. A slightly larger teapot, the dobin was traditionally used to serve tea at family meals (Cort 2000:230–231; Ross 2012:10–12).
