A beautifully thrown celadon glazed teapot by Roger Kerslake, a British trained potter who later worked in Ontario, Canada. This 1970s studio piece features a soft green celadon glaze with subtle variation, a ribbed body, and a traditional bamboo handle secured with decorative knots.
The teapot holds approximately 1 litre, making it both functional and display worthy. The base carries Kerslake’s maker’s mark, confirming the attribution. There is some light crazing toward the base, typical of celadon glazes of this era, and some light scuffing to the bamboo handle. Otherwise, this piece is in excellent vintage condition.
Measuring 24 cm high with the handle (14 cm teapot only) and 18 cm wide, it’s a substantial and elegant example of 1970s studio pottery with a strong East Asian influence filtered through Western craft training.
