The most striking feature of this Chinese Yixing teapot lies in its sculptural design. The name "Three-Legged Ruyi" derives from three supporting feet beneath the pot body, ensuring stability while creating unique visual appeal. The smooth contours balance gentle curves with upright outlines, while the spout and handle arcs echo each other, embodying traditional Chinese aesthetic balance. This harmonious design makes it both functional and artistic.

The craftsmanship defines this handmade Yixing teapot's value. Using traditional manual techniques from material selection to shaping, the zisha clay undergoes natural aging for at least three months. Master Xu employs ancient slab-forming methods with wooden tools, achieving millimeter precision in lid-fit that prevents leakage. This labor-intensive process ensures each piece remains unique.

As a national craft master, Xu demands perfection in details. Multiple hand-polishing sessions reveal the natural luster of purple clay. The knob's miniature ruyi (auspicious symbol) design combines practicality with symbolic meaning. Internal finishing prevents tea residue accumulation, simplifying maintenance - all demonstrating exceptional artistry.
