Discover the Art of Yixing Zisha Teapots: Master Xu Shijuan's 2000cc Snowflake Hexagonal Treasure
$2142.86Handmade Yixing Zisha teapot using premium Di Cao Qing clay. 2000cc capacity, hexagonal design by National Senior Craft Artist Xu Shijuan. Timeless collectible for tea artistry.
The Yixing purple clay teapot stands as a significant representation of traditional Chinese handicrafts. Today's featured piece, named "Liufang Xuehua," is entirely handmade by National Senior Craft Artist Xu Shijuan. Its unique form and exquisite craftsmanship demonstrate the pinnacle of purple clay teapot artistry.
Crafted from precious original Di Cao Qing clay, this Chinese zisha teapot utilizes a unique Yixing mineral from Huanglong Mountain. The naturally weathered clay achieves refined texture through repeated pounding until reaching perfect pliability. When fired, the material reveals warm purplish-brown tones with natural golden speckles - distinctive characteristics of authentic mineral clay.
With 2000ml capacity, this large handmade Yixing teapot suits group tea ceremonies or display purposes. Its hexagonal body features precisely proportioned planes and crisp edges, each corner meticulously polished for geometric elegance and ergonomic comfort. Such dimensional precision demands exceptional spatial control from the artisan.
Xu Shijuan employed traditional techniques throughout the teapot's creation, executing nearly 100 processes from clay slab formation to final assembly. The substantial size required meticulous proportional coordination, with repeated adjustments ensuring optimal spout alignment for drip-free pouring and perfect lid fitment that withstands inversion.
The surface decoration distinguishes this Yixing zisha teapot masterwork. Six snowflake patterns adorn each facet through relief carving techniques, executed when the clay reached semi-dry state. Each crystalline design varies - some showcasing sharp hexagonal angles, others mimicking frost diffusion - all requiring precise carving pressure to avoid structural compromise.
Using this purple clay teapot enhances tea appreciation through its dual-porosity structure that maintains optimal temperature and aroma. Extended use develops natural patina, deepening the surface luster. Simple water rinsing suffices for maintenance, avoiding detergents.
With thirty years' expertise, Xu Shijuan's works have earned international acclaim. The "Liufang Xuehua" represents six months' dedicated creation, bearing the artist's seal and production date for collectible authentication. Proper care involves avoiding oils, abrasive cleaners, and extreme temperatures. Initial tea soaking activates clay properties, while regular soft cloth wiping preserves integrity.
For global tea enthusiasts, this China purple clay teapot serves both functional and artistic purposes. Its geometric purity blended with winter motifs creates meditative tea experiences while enhancing home aesthetics. As original mineral resources dwindle, such handmade Yixing teapot masterpieces gain increasing collectible value - a worthy investment for tea connoisseurs and art collectors alike.
