Janet DeBoos Teapot, Iconic Australian Studio Pottery, c1980s (D0381)
An aesthetically balanced studio pottery teapot by acclaimed Australian ceramicist Janet DeBoos. The form is clean and functional, with the quiet refinement and subtle glaze work that characterises her domestic ware. The proportions, handle placement, and spout geometry reflect DeBoos’ deep understanding of functional ceramics and the aesthetics of everyday ritual.
Janet DeBoos is one of Australia’s most influential ceramic artists, known for her decades of teaching and her cross-cultural collaborations. Her work is held in major public collections including the National Gallery of Australia and the Powerhouse Museum. Her domestic pieces — especially teapots — are prized for their thoughtful design, technical precision, and enduring beauty.
