Cloud Hidden Handcrafted Ash Kettle
Each Cloud Hidden Kettle is handcrafted using a distinctive wood-firing technique, with kiln ash carefully packed around every piece. The result is a richly textured surface in layered, earthy tones—a reflection of the earth from which we come and to which we return.
Hand-finished with devotion and care, no two kettles are ever exactly alike. Each piece is made from highly porous Taiwanese clay, traditionally valued for its ability to refine water and enhance the tea-brewing experience.
Designed to transcend the traditional boundaries between kettle and teapot, this versatile piece is flameproof and can be placed directly over a flame.
Two Ways to Enjoy
As a Kettle
Its compact proportions and flameproof construction make it ideal for intimate tea sessions or anyone who prefers a smaller, more considered kettle.
For Boiling Tea
Tea can also be boiled directly in the kettle, making it suitable for ceremonial preparation and continuous brewing in more relaxed settings. This method produces a darker, fuller-bodied infusion with remarkable depth and richness.
Capacity: Approximately 2,300 ml
A functional work of art, the Cloud Hidden Kettle brings beauty, ritual and versatility to every tea experience.
Softer Water, Sweeter Tea
At the heart of this exceptional kettle is its carefully developed clay. Refined through decades of testing, the unique blend naturally softens the water and smooths away harsh edges, revealing a cleaner, more delicate flavour with every pour. The result is better water and a beautifully sweeter cup of tea.
Heat and Pour from One Beautiful Vessel
Crafted from heat-resistant clay, the kettle allows water to be brought to a boil and poured from the same vessel. This seamless transition from heating to serving helps preserve the water’s quality, enhancing the flavour of every cup.
Designed for versatile use, it is suitable for gas stoves, glass or ceramic cooktops, induction and infrared burners, or charcoal for a more traditional tea-making ritual.
Made in Cloud Hidden’s Taiwan Studio
Every kettle is handcrafted in the Cloud Hidden studio in Taiwan. Each original shape is developed in close partnership with the studio, thoughtfully designed to meet the precise demands of traditional tea brewing.
Far from mass-produced, these are distinctive pieces created and owned by Cloud Hidden. Years of refinement have gone into perfecting every form, while the natural character of the clay ensures that no two kettles are ever exactly alike.
Made to be treasured rather than replaced, a well-cared-for clay kettle can pour beautifully for decades. The finest become heirlooms, carrying the ritual of tea from one generation to the next.
