Zisha Teapots crafted from premium clay, featuring a delicate 20cc capacity.
$128.57Zisha teapots, as the crown jewels of traditional Chinese tea ware, have long been cherished by tea enthusiasts. Among them, this 'Beauty Shoulder' enamel ball
The Yixing purple clay teapot is a classic representative of traditional Chinese handicrafts. It serves not only as a tool for brewing tea but also as an artwork carrying cultural significance. The teapot introduced today bears a beautiful name - "Beauty's Shoulder", combining traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics to showcase unique charm.
The most striking feature of this zisha teapot lies in its sculptural design. Inspired by the graceful posture of ancient Chinese women, the vessel exhibits smooth, rounded curves resembling naturally sloping feminine shoulders. The seamless transition between lid and body mimics the moment when clothing slips off the shoulder, while the upward-curving spout resembles a shyly lowered head. This design elevates the purple clay teapot from functional object to artistic showpiece, particularly appealing to tea enthusiasts who appreciate oriental aesthetics.
Crafted from rare "premium wrinkled vermilion clay", this Yixing teapot material originates from Jiangsu's Yixing region, requiring decades of underground aging before use. High-temperature firing creates unique wrinkled textures on the surface, resembling an elder's weathered palm. The clay's characteristic reddish-brown hue transforms into a ripe persimmon color after firing - warm yet subtle. Its greatest advantage lies in maintaining tea temperature over extended periods, allowing full release of tea fragrance.
The handmade Yixing zisha teapot features exquisite enamel-colored pomander flower patterns. Artisans first carve shallow grooves on the surface before filling them with colored glazes. Three high-temperature firings permanently fuse pigments with the clay body. The spherical flower patterns consist of multiple circular petals layered like ancient embroidered balls. Alternating pastel pink, light green, and sky blue hues create vibrant yet harmonious decoration requiring immense patience, as any error could cause color bleeding.
With a 20cc capacity, this Chinese purple clay teapot represents miniature perfection. The compact size facilitates solo tea sessions with precise control over tea quantity and water temperature. Nine drainage holes arranged in plum blossom pattern ensure smooth, residue-free pouring. The spout's specially calculated "internal push" design prevents liquid dribbling, even when pouring the last drop.
Craftsman Sun Jianfang, a national-level craft artist with over 30 years experience in zisha teapot creation, produced this masterpiece. Each teapot undergoes 72 manual procedures from clay preparation to final firing. Sun's works command high auction prices, with this "Beauty's Shoulder" bearing his authentic signature - enhancing its collectible value.
This Yixing teapot serves equally well as daily utensil or art display. Regular use with specific tea varieties allows the clay to absorb aromas and develop unique patina. Maintenance simply requires water rinsing without chemicals. For international friends, it offers both Chinese tea culture immersion and tactile connection to traditional craftsmanship - functioning simultaneously as practical tool and window into oriental aesthetics.
