Masterpiece Zisha Teapot: Wu Yawei & Xu Nan's Dragon Blood Clay Creation
$857.14Premium 950cc Yixing teapot crafted from Dragon Blood Clay by master artisans Wu Yawei and Xu Nan, embodying Jiangsu pottery heritage.
The Yixing zisha teapot represents a traditional Chinese handicraft with centuries of history. Renowned for its unique material and craftsmanship, this teapot serves both functional and collectible purposes. The featured purple clay teapot, named "Four Great Beauties," originates from contemporary zisha teapot masters within the "Gu Mai Xu Men" lineage of Yixing.
This artistic tradition traces back to Master Gu Jingzhou, having nurtured numerous zisha artisans. 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.
The handmade Yixing zisha teapot showcases four ancient beauties carved by Provincial Industrial Art Master Xu Nan. Through meticulous engraving, Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diao Chan, and Yang Yuhuan emerge vividly on the teapot's surface, transforming the vessel into a storytelling artifact.
Crafted from precious Longxue clay sourced from Yixing's Huanglong Mountain, this chinese zisha teapot exhibits deep purplish-red hues after firing. The 950ml capacity design balances practical use for group tea sessions with aesthetic presentation. Its excellent breathability optimally preserves tea aromas, demonstrating why purple clay teapot sets remain highly valued.
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.
Beyond functionality, this chinese yixing teapot holds collectible significance. The base bears the maker's stamp while Master Xu Nan's handwritten signature inside the lid authenticates its provenance. For enthusiasts, such works embody living history, documenting traditional craftsmanship's evolution. Each tea brewing session becomes an interaction with artisanal spirit.
Modern rediscovery of handmade zisha teapot values highlights their unique patina development through prolonged use, enhancing tea flavor unlike glass or porcelain. The "Four Great Beauties" teapot masterfully blends ancient techniques with contemporary aesthetics, serving equally well as daily utensil or decorative art.
Proper maintenance ensures longevity. Immediate cleaning after use without detergents preserves the yixing purple clay teapot. Gentle polishing with soft cloths cultivates natural patina over time. With care, this china purple clay teapot could endure decades, potentially becoming a heritage piece for future generations.
