Plisse Pleated White Porcelain Teapots by Pillivuyt

The Plisse teapot brings slender relief lines to a recognizable serving form. Different capacities suit either a few quiet cups or a longer afternoon with company.

“I choose the size of a teapot according to the people gathered. I would keep the small Plisse pot ready for a quiet afternoon.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Maker / Heritage

Established in France in 1818, Pillivuyt has been producing porcelain at its Mehun-sur-Yèvre manufacture since 1854. More than two centuries of accumulated knowledge inform its precise forms, remarkably smooth glaze, and enduring approach to functional tableware.

Fired at high temperatures, Pillivuyt porcelain develops a dense, nonporous surface that combines the refinement of fine French craftsmanship with the demands of everyday use.
