The body of this kettle pot is inspired by the petals of the Chrysanthemum flower. Chrysanthemums originated in China and were imported to Japan in the 8th century for its beauty and sophistication. At that time, the Japanese royal and noble classes looked up to Tang Dynasty’s culture, and keenly adopted many of its cultural emblems. The chrysanthemum was no exception; this kettle, therefore, embodies Nara era Japan’s evolving ideals around high culture and even standards of beauty itself.
