Artisan Wu Yawei, a National Senior Industrial Artisan trained under Provincial Master Xu Yuanming for over two decades, created this masterpiece. Presently recognized as an authoritative figure in the Yixing teapot field, her work embodies exceptional skill.

Producing such yixing teapot shapes requires thirty-plus procedures. Clay preparation alone takes two months of hammering and sun-drying to remove impurities. Each curve undergoes manual refinement, with spout and handle positions repeatedly adjusted for drip-free pouring. The firing process demands precise kiln temperature control at 1180°C - any deviation affects outcomes.
