Masterpiece Xu Minfang Teapot: Natural-Inspired Zisha Artistry & Collectible Craftsmanship
$857.14Xu Minfang's 220cc Yixing teapot uses authentic Di Cao Qing clay, featuring an organic eggplant design with meticulous handcrafted details for superior tea infusion.
This is a collectible and functional Yixing zisha teapot. Named "Qie Duan Hu" (Eggplant Segment Teapot), it represents a classic style from traditional floral-themed zisha ware. With 220ml capacity, this purple clay teapot perfectly serves 2-3 people, maintaining optimal tea temperature without excessive weight.
The crucial material is Di Cao Qing clay from Huanglong Mountain in Yixing. This premium purple clay variety shows deep violet tones with golden speckles, offering excellent breathability that develops a lustrous sheen with prolonged use. The clay undergoes years of natural weathering before processing.
Crafted by Xu Minfang, a National Senior Craft Artist with three decades of experience, this handmade Yixing teapot blends traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. Her signature engraved at the base authenticates its collectible value.
Inspired by farm-grown eggplants, the teapot's curves mimic fresh-picked vegetables. The seamless lid rotation demonstrates handcrafted precision. The realistic eggplant-calyx lid knob, separately sculpted and attached, showcases exceptional craftsmanship while providing practical grip.
The practical spout ensures smooth pouring without dripping, while the ergonomic handle allows comfortable control. When viewed from above, the teapot's silhouette perfectly replicates an eggplant cross-section.
Ideal for brewing pu'erh or black tea, this zisha teapot enhances tea flavors through its unique porous structure. Initial preparation involves boiling with tea leaves, while routine maintenance simply requires rinsing - accumulated patina gradually enriches its surface texture.
Beyond functionality, this Yixing purple clay teapot serves as artistic expression. Its minimalist design emphasizes natural forms and technical mastery. Steam rising from the calyx-shaped knob during brewing evokes pastoral freshness, transforming daily tea rituals into sensory experiences.
With regular use, the matte surface gradually develops a glossy patina through tea absorption. The evolving texture, smooth as infant skin, embodies the beautiful synergy between user and utensil - a defining charm of authentic Chinese zisha teapots.
