Wu Guozheng's Authentic Yixing Zisha Teapot: Collector's Masterpiece in Premium Jiangpo Clay
$171.43Handmade Yixing zisha teapot by Wu Guozheng using Jiangpo clay. 240cc capacity, triangular structure, engraved details, includes authenticity certificates. Collector-grade artistry.
This Yixing purple clay teapot named "Hidden Gourd" is the latest creation by National Assistant Craft Artisan Wu Guozheng. As a handmade zisha teapot crafted by the artisan himself, it demonstrates the essence of traditional techniques from material selection to sculpting. The body is fired with precious raw ore Jiangpo clay from Yixing's Huanglong Mountain mining area, carefully screened and naturally aged for years to preserve natural mineral components. After firing, the surface develops unique granular texture with warm, rustic hues.
With 240cc capacity, this medium-sized zisha teapot suits both group tea sessions and personal use. The cylindrical body features a slightly wider base and narrower top, forming a stable triangular structure. This bottom-heavy design ensures stability even when fully filled.
The lid stands out as a highlight of this Yixing teapot. The flat lid surface perfectly fits the opening, allowing smooth rotation without wobbling. The classic bridge-shaped knob follows finger contours for single-handed operation. The short straight spout features precisely polished water outlet that creates neat parabolic arc pour without dripping.
The inverted triangular handle displays full, flowing lines that naturally conform to palm curvature, ensuring comfortable grip during prolonged use. Balanced weight distribution between spout and handle creates stable center of gravity for effortless handling.
Traditional patterns carved on the body showcase vigorous yet delicate engraving techniques. The precisely controlled carving depth maintains both manual texture and clear pattern visibility. These decorations become permanently fused with the teapot through high-temperature firing. Multiple manual polishing sessions produce natural surface luster.
This Chinese purple clay teapot comes with complete authentication certificates including artist's signature, unique serial number, and clay material test report. Each piece undergoes over twenty procedures from clay kneading to firing. Strict kiln temperature control during production ensures optimal breathability and durability. The three-day natural cooling process after firing completes nearly two months of meticulous craftsmanship.
When brewing tea, this handmade Yixing zisha teapot gradually absorbs tea oils to develop richer surface patina. Initial warm water rinse is recommended before first use. Daily maintenance simply requires wiping with tea cloth. The high-quality Jiangpo clay's excellent breathability allows tea leaves to oxidize naturally, eventually imparting subtle tea aroma to plain water.
This purple clay teapot set serves both practical use and collection purposes. Artisan Wu Guozheng, with over a decade of zisha creation experience, is renowned for precise forms and meticulous craftsmanship. His award-winning works continue with this "Hidden Gourd" that blends traditional shapes with modern aesthetics. For foreign enthusiasts of Chinese tea culture, this Yixing teapot functions as both practical brewing tool and window into traditional Chinese craftsmanship.
