Meri Jaan

This teapot is a personal reflection on my Pakistani-American identity, inspired by childhood memories and cultural traditions I once felt distant from but have since embraced. Shaped like a traditional toy trolley and adorned with symbols such as a paan leaf spout, a Parle-G cookie handle, mehndi designs, and the phrase “meri jaan,” the piece brings together fragments of heritage, memory, and love into a single functional form.
