Mastering Tradition: The Art of Yixing Zisha Teapots by Chen Huajun
$128.57Vintage Yixing teapot with 7-hole spout, 150cc capacity. Handcrafted by certified artisan Chen Huajun using rare Cultural Revolution-era purple clay.
The "Qiegua" yixing teapot embodies distinctive characteristics of traditional Chinese culture. Its rounded silhouette draws inspiration from natural eggplants, with a plump body resembling ripe fruit. The surface exhibits a warm luster derived from its unique clay properties.
Crafted from aged purple clay mined during the Cultural Revolution era, this zisha teapot benefits from decades of natural aging that refined the clay's texture. When fired, the material reveals deep purplish-brown tones with sparkling mineral particles that create subtle visual effects under light. The porous structure of this chinese yixing teapot enhances tea flavor preservation.
With 150ml capacity ideal for 2-3 drinkers, this handmade yixing teapot features seamless lid fitting and a curved spout ensuring smooth pouring. The interior seven-hole filter arranged in plum blossom pattern effectively retains tea leaves while maintaining flow rate.
Master artisan Chen Huajun, a nationally-certified craftsman with three decades experience, employed traditional "inner-pushing" techniques to shape this purple clay teapot. His manual forming process ensures uniform wall thickness balancing lightness and durability.
When using this yixing zisha teapot, pre-warm it with hot water. Its dual-porosity structure gradually absorbs tea aromas, developing a natural patina over time. Clean solely with water, avoiding detergents that could damage the material.
The teapot's ergonomic design combines practicality and artistry. The spherical body ensures comfortable grip, while the eggplant-shaped knob provides slip resistance. The handle's curvature fits palm contours perfectly, and the plum-blossom filter adds aesthetic detail.
Collectors value this zisha teapot for multiple reasons: scarce aged clay becomes rarer over time, the master's credentials guarantee quality, and the inscribed signature ensures authenticity. Its moderate size suits both daily use and storage.
Maintenance requires timely removal of tea residues and thorough drying. Avoid exposure to odors or grease. Store in shaded areas when unused, periodically wiping surfaces with tea cloth to maintain luster.
The "Qiegua" yixing purple clay teapot demonstrates exquisite traditional craftsmanship. Its deceptively simple curves result from repeated refinements, reflecting the meticulous approach sustaining this centuries-old art.
For foreign enthusiasts exploring Chinese teaware, this handmade zisha teapot offers an ideal introduction. Its classic form and functional size facilitate brewing skill development, allowing users to gradually appreciate how purple clay subtly enhances tea characteristics through regular use.
