Collectible Yixing Purple Clay Teapot – Hanwa & Shipiao Fusion Crafted by Master Shen Jiankang
$300.00Handcrafted Yixing teapot with vintage purple clay, 150cc capacity. Features Hanwa-Shipiao fusion design, Jiangnan landscape motif, and master artisan certification. Exceptional collectible piece.

This is a Yixing teapot named "Wa Piao". With a capacity of 150 milliliters, it's perfect for brewing tea. Crafted from classic zisha clay through traditional techniques, the material carries rich classical charm. Purple clay teapots not only exhibit beautiful colors but also develop a glossy patina over time, making them particularly popular among tea enthusiasts.

The artisan behind this teapot is Shen Jiankang, a nationally certified senior craft artist. Holding titles including "National Second-Grade Technician" and "Chinese Calligraphy & Painting Zisha Art Master", Shen also serves as a key member of China National Painting Artists Association. As art director of Kangqian Zisha Art Museum, he specializes in integrating painting art with zisha teapot creation, demonstrating top-tier craftsmanship.

This Wa Piao design innovatively blends two classical Chinese teapot styles - the solemnity of Han Dynasty roof tiles and elegant lines of Shih Piao teapots. Its trapezoidal shape widens towards the base for stable handling. The short straight spout ensures drip-free pouring, while the bridge-shaped knob combines aesthetics with functional ease.

Authentic zisha teapots demand precision. This piece features perfectly aligned body and lid that remain watertight even when full. Its surface showcases a Jiangnan watertown scene inlaid with multicolored clay - bridges, streams, and pavilions rendered in ink painting style through meticulous hand-carving on unfired clay.

Beyond functionality, this handmade Yixing zisha teapot embodies artistry. The dark chocolate-hued clay contrasts beautifully with light brown landscapes. Flowing curves from spout to handle mimic calligraphic brushstrokes, offering visual interest from every angle.

Practical advantages include zisha clay's micro-pores that absorb tea aromas. The 150ml capacity ideally suits oolong or pu'er tea, allowing full leaf expansion. Its rounded form and bridge knob enhance user experience through ergonomic design.
As collectible art, Shen's works appreciate annually. Combining traditional techniques with innovative design using authentic Yixing clay, this teapot's engraved decorations elevate its artistic value. Such pieces merging utility and beauty become increasingly rare.
Proper maintenance involves initial boiling with tea to eliminate earthy odors. Rinse with water only after use, avoiding detergents that damage aroma absorption. A well-cared zisha teapot grows more lustrous with time, developing personal character like an old friend.
This Wa Piao teapot appeals to tea lovers appreciating traditional craftsmanship. It serves as both functional tool and cultural artifact, offering foreign enthusiasts tangible access to China's 600-year zisha heritage.
Handcrafted masterpieces like this - designed by experts using premium materials - make excellent personal tea companions or gifts. With proper care, it can accompany tea rituals for decades, becoming spiritual props in daily life.
