Siting-shaped Duanni/Zhuni Yixing Teapot 100ml


€128,00

This Siting-shaped Zhuni Yixing Teapot is a beautiful, hand-crafted piece sourced from the Yixing Zisha Museum in Dingshu County. Known for its pear-like form, this teapot is inspired by the original Xiting teapots created by Qing Dynasty master Lu Xiting, who marked his works with the name “思亭”. Early Xiting teapots have a distinct, understated spout curve, typically inscribed with a bamboo knife. Later pieces display a more refined elegance, with smoother curves and sharper spouts, showing the evolution in style.

The Xiting teapot shape holds a prestigious place in tea culture, as referenced in the famous Qing Dynasty saying from Fujian: “First the nameless, second Xiting, third Mengchen, fourth Yigong.” This teapot’s shape and historical significance make it an ideal choice for both collectors and tea enthusiasts alike, enhancing the experience of brewing tea with tradition and artistry.

Comes with Artist signature and certificate.

We present here a half-handmade collection of Zisha Purple Clay teapots, teacups from Yixing. Each piece is one of its kind and handmade by local ceramic artists in Yixing.

Yixing pots are traditionally made from Zisha (‘purple sand’), a natural clay known for its porous nature and excellent heat retention properties.

The beauty of a Yixing pot lies in its simplicity and functionality. Each pot is often handcrafted, ensuring that no two pots are exactly alike. This individuality is further enhanced over time, as the porous clay absorbs the flavors and aromas of the teas brewed within, gradually seasoning the pot.

Ideal for brewing oolong, black, and pu-erh teas, Yixing pots are valued for their ability to enhance the depth and complexity of tea flavors. The clay’s mineral composition interacts gently with the tea, softening and rounding its taste, making every brew a unique experience.

The aesthetic appeal of Yixing pots also lies in their diverse range of styles, shapes, and colors, from classic reds and browns to more modern designs. They are not just functional tools for brewing tea but also works of art, appreciated by tea lovers and collectors alike.

This teapot features filter, holds approximately 120ml of liquid and pours empty in approximately 5 seconds.
