SEKIMONO offers three copper teapot stands, each measuring approximately Ø192 × H30 mm. Designed to give a teapot or kyusu a defined place within a tea setting, each piece is crafted from copper, hand-finished, and given a surface color treatment in Wuxi, Jiangsu, China. Since all three models share the same external dimensions, your choice centers on motif design and current price ($129–$139 USD).

Dimensions are the same across all three designs

Each stand measures approximately Ø192 × H30 mm. That means size is not the deciding factor within this group; the main differences are motif and price.

Before ordering, measure the base of the teapot you intend to use and check how a 192 mm diameter stand will fit alongside cups, a fairness pitcher and other accessories on your tea table.

Compare by design

  • Fortune from All Directions: a more sculptural surface built around a crab-inspired motif and fine linework.
  • Daylily: a botanical design with flowers and long, flowing leaves.
  • Listening to Bamboo: a quieter landscape combining rock-like contours with bamboo-leaf motifs.

How to choose a teapot stand

  1. Measure your teapot base. Compare the stand's published external diameter of approximately 192 mm with your available table space. SEKIMONO does not currently publish a verified usable support-surface diameter, so exact teapot fit should not be inferred from the outer dimension alone.
  2. Measure your tea table. Make sure the stand leaves enough room for the rest of your brewing setup.
  3. Choose the visual character. Since the dimensions are shared, motif is the clearest distinction.
  4. Check current price and availability. Daylily and Listening to Bamboo are currently $129; Fortune from All Directions is $139.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a teapot stand and a tea tray?

A teapot stand is primarily sized to give one teapot a dedicated base, while a tea tray is larger and intended to organize multiple pieces of teaware within the same brewing area.

Do the three SEKIMONO stands use the same material?

Yes. All three are copper, hand-finished and surface-colored in Wuxi, Jiangsu, China.

How do I know whether 192 mm is suitable?

Measure the base of your teapot and the free space on your tea table. The published dimensions are more reliable than judging scale from product photos alone.
