Exquisite Yixing Zisha Teapot: Artisan-Crafted Dragon Design & Collector's Choice
$214.29Handmade Yixing Zisha teapot with dragon motifs, 80cc capacity, three-legged design, and Chilong knob. Crafted by certified artist Yu Zhen using authentic purple clay.
This "San Zu Chi Long" handmade Yixing zisha teapot represents the pinnacle of Chinese traditional tea ware. Crafted by national-level craft artist Yu Zhen using naturally aged raw zisha clay from his family's collection, this 80-milliliter vessel combines practical functionality with artistic appreciation.
The spout is designed as an intricately carved dragon head showing detailed whiskers and scale textures. Its upward-curving shape ensures smooth pouring while enhancing the dragon's lifelike appearance. The corresponding handle features matching carvings and ergonomic curvature for comfortable grip, creating symmetrical aesthetics with the dragon motif.
The rounded body resembling ripe fruit provides optimal space for tea leaves to unfurl. Three small feet at the base stabilize the teapot while evoking the solemnity of ancient bronze vessels. The lid's Chi Dragon knob - resembling a coiled cloud or curved eggplant - displays meticulous carvings of claws and tendrils, offering tactile granular texture when lifted.
The premium zisha clay develops deep purple hues with soft luster after high-temperature firing, presenting skin-like smoothness. This porous material naturally preserves tea aromas. Practical features include drip-free pouring from the 80-milliliter body and airtight lid fit. Long-term use cultivates a natural patina that enhances its visual depth.
Master Yu Zhen employed traditional techniques from clay slab formation to precise 1300-degree Celsius firing. Decorative patterns were carved on damp clay with specialized tools, requiring absolute precision. The final product demonstrates perfect balance between earthy tones and metallic sheen.
Blending utility with artistry, this Yixing zisha teapot embodies Chinese tea culture through both daily use and collectible value. As it develops character with age, it transforms into an heirloom piece that fosters spiritual connection between user and object, carrying forward centuries of ceramic heritage.
