Crafted from four precious clays, the main body uses deep purple zini clay for stability, while the spout and handle incorporate reddish qinghui clay for warm transitions. The lid employs green clay for fresh contrast, with golden duanni clay creating distinctive patterns. The 300ml capacity ensures practical use with ergonomic design - smooth water flow, comfortable grip, and precise lid fitting that remains secure even when inverted.

Surface carvings depict botanical motifs: plum blossoms on the front with minimalist lines, orchid leaves on the side, bamboo joints around the neck, and chrysanthemum petals on the lid. Master Jiang Xikun (art name "Yi Shi"), with four decades of experience, created this piece through 20+ meticulous processes including clay blending, hand-shaping, specialized carving tools, and 1180°C firing over 15 days.

The zisha teapot's dual-pore structure enhances tea aroma while developing natural patina over time. As a collectible, its rare clay combination (especially scarce golden duanni) and symbolic motifs representing perseverance, nobility, integrity, and simplicity make it valuable. Master Jiang's annual production remains under 50 pieces.

Proper maintenance requires gentle cleaning without chemicals, avoiding abrasive tools, and regular ventilation during storage. This "Four Gentlemen" teapot blends functionality with artistic expression, offering both daily utility and cultural contemplation. Its harmonious integration of varied clays, botanical symbolism, and master craftsmanship makes it worthy of appreciation and preservation for lovers of Chinese traditional culture.
