Handcrafted Yixing Zisha Teapot | Artisan Xia Ruijuan Masterpiece 1


The Yixing zisha teapot is a gem among Chinese traditional handicrafts, serving not only as a tea brewing tool but also as an artwork carrying cultural heritage. This featured purple clay teapot, named "Daohong Bamboo," was created by national senior craft artist Xia Ruijuan. Crafted from rare celadon-duan clay with 450ml capacity, it combines daily practicality with artistic collectible value.

Born in 1968 in Dingshu Town, Yixing - the birthplace of Chinese zisha teapots - Xia grew up immersed in zisha culture. Multiple family members engaged in zisha craftsmanship, fostering her deep connection with this art. In 1988, she systematically studied pot-making under Jiangsu Ceramic Art Master Gu Daorong, later refining her skills at Tsinghua University's Academy of Arts & Design.

The handmade Yixing teapot's most remarkable feature lies in its material. Celadon-duan clay, a rare zisha variety, exhibits warm grayish-green tones that develop jade-like luster through use. Its unique dual-porosity structure absorbs tea aromas - with prolonged use, even plain water poured into the seasoned teapot emits subtle tea fragrance. Working with this delicate material demands exceptional skill.

The pot's robust silhouette showcases classic Daohong style, with mathematically calculated spout and handle curves balancing ergonomics and visual impact. Bamboo node decorations applied through Wang-style sculpting techniques feature naturalistic carvings with clear leaf veins. The precision-fitted lid ensures drip-free pouring.

As functional ware, this 450ml zisha teapot perfectly serves 3-5 people. Its balanced weight distribution allows comfortable single-handed use, while the specially designed filter ensures smooth tea flow. The celadon-duan clay's heat retention particularly benefits pu'er and oolong tea enthusiasts.

Xia's creative journey adds unique value. Having received guidance from masters He Daohong and Wang Yinxian, she harmoniously blends Daohong School's boldness with Wang School's delicacy. Her Tsinghua training infused modern design concepts into traditional craftsmanship, creating collector-worthy pieces that bridge heritage and innovation.

Maintenance tips include initial tea-water boiling, prompt cleaning after use, and avoiding detergents. Natural patina will develop over time through dedicated "pot seasoning." Consistent use with one tea type enhances its flavor-enhancing properties.
