Exclusive Masterpiece: Dragon Blood Clay Yixing Zisha Teapot by Zhou Xinyuan
$771.43A 460CC Zisha teapot using vintage Dragon Blood clay, co-created by master artists Zhou Xinyuan and Xu Nan through traditional manual techniques.
This is a highly collectible Chinese Yixing zisha teapot named "Rong Tian", with a capacity of 460ml suitable for group tea sessions. Crafted from an exceptionally rare material called "Dragon Blood Clay", this purple clay teapot utilizes raw earth stored for over fifty years by the artist's family, representing clay quality scarcely found in modern markets.
The handmade Yixing teapot demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship. Created by Zhou Xinyuan, a nationally certified senior industrial artist and respected zisha teapot master, it embodies techniques inherited from two renowned mentors: Wang Xiaolong (son of Yixing pottery pioneer Wang Yinchun) and Gao Lijun, both Jiangsu Province-recognized masters and spouses in the pottery community.
The "Rong Tian" design celebrates traditional Chinese cultural values of tolerance through its harmonious proportions. The rotund body, well-balanced spout, and ergonomic handle combine functionality with aesthetics. Perfect lid-body alignment ensures drip-free pouring, showcasing technical mastery.
Surface decorations by Xu Nan, another Jiangsu Provincial master, blend traditional motifs with contemporary sensibility. His carvings maintain classical charm while avoiding antiquated stiffness, making this Chinese purple clay teapot both timeless and modern.
Dragon Blood Clay exhibits unique characteristics: a deep burgundy hue that mellows with use, special mineral composition enhancing tea aroma preservation, and exceptional stability from half-century-aged materials preventing cracks.
Practical features include the 460ml capacity accommodating 3-4 drinkers, precision-engineered spout for smooth pouring, and comfort-shaped handle ensuring secure grip. As a collectible, this Yixing zisha teapot holds multiple values: collaborative creation by top masters, rare material heritage, and unique handmade artistry.
For tea enthusiasts, this zisha teapot enhances brewing through the clay's natural breathability and thermal retention. Regular use develops a lustrous natural patina, deepening its visual appeal. Maintenance requires simple rinsing without detergents, gentle wiping with tea cloths, and air-drying in ventilated spaces.
The "Rong Tian" embodies peak traditional craftsmanship - from material selection through ancient techniques - transcending functional utility to become inheritable art. As genuine handmade Yixing teapots grow scarce, this piece combining master artistry, rare materials, and exquisite decoration offers both daily use and cultural display. For newcomers to zisha appreciation, it vividly demonstrates traditional craftsmanship's enduring charm.
