Sansui Dobin (山水土瓶)

Literally "landscape earthen teapot." This style of teapot is most often associated with Mashiko-area potteries and the Mingei Undo (民藝運動・民芸運動). In 1938 a sansui dobin decorated by Minigawa Matsu gained international recognition by winning first place at the First International Craft Exhibition in Berlin (Crueger et al. 2006:220).
