Master Xu Nan's Shi Piao Zisha Teapot: Premium Red Clay Art & Collectible
$1500.00Master Xu Nan's 60cc Shi Piao teapot, crafted with珍藏d red clay, combines elite craftsmanship and functional elegance for tea connoisseurs.
This is a top-tier Yixing zisha teapot handcrafted by Xu Nan, a Ceramic Art Master from Jiangsu Province. Named "Shi Piao", it represents one of the most classic shapes in zisha teapot design. The streamlined body features meticulously calculated spout and handle designs that ensure smooth pouring and comfortable handling. With a 60cc capacity, this compact teapot is perfect for solo tea sessions.
Crafted from precious "Da Hong Pao" clay from the artist's family collection - rare mineral material now scarcely available - the teapot develops warm reddish tones and natural luster after high-temperature firing. Its surface feels as smooth as infant skin through expert polishing. This exceptional clay preserves tea aromas effectively and develops increasing brilliance with prolonged use.
Master Xu Nan, also Vice President of Jiangsu Ceramics Committee, holds esteemed status in zisha art circles. His most renowned protégé Chen Honglin evolved from apprentice to master engraver under Xu's guidance. Their teacher-student legacy now symbolizes craftsmanship excellence in this field.
This Shi Piao teapot embodies four decades of Xu Nan's expertise. Precision engineering ensures perfect lid-body alignment without leakage. The deceptively simple curvature requires masterful technique, while three subtle feet provide stability without compromising elegance.
The Yixing teapot's semi-porous clay structure enhances tea brewing - clarifying green tea's sweetness and intensifying pu'er's earthy notes. Simple maintenance with water rinsing allows natural patina development through "pot nurturing", a cherished aspect of zisha culture.
Its 60cc compactness suits modern lifestyles, accompanied by matching cups from the same clay batch. Minimalist design highlights the material's innate beauty rather than elaborate decoration.
As collectible art, this Chinese zisha teapot carries significant value. Xu Nan's works using family-reserve Da Hong Pao clay grow increasingly scarce. The base bears his authentic signature, certifying it as representative work. Beyond functionality, it's inheritable artistry.
Proper care involves initial warm water rinse, avoiding detergents, and thorough drying after use. Quality purple clay teapots develop richer hues over time, embodying the spiritual props of tea culture.
This Shi Piao teapot harmonizes traditional craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics, maintaining ancient practicality while meeting modern minimalist preferences. Whether for daily use or as cultural gift, it manifests China's profound tea heritage, elevating Yixing zisha art through Master Xu Nan's vision.
