Exquisite Dragon Zisha Clay Teapot: Masterpiece by Bao Yuhua | 400cc, Collector’s Choice
$235.71Master-crafted Yixing teapot with dragon motifs, 400cc capacity, Di Cao Qing clay, and flawless engineering for optimal tea brewing. Collector-grade artistry.
Today I want to recommend an extraordinary Yixing teapot! This piece named "Soaring Dragon Across Seas" is handcrafted by national-level craft artist Bao Yuhua. With over thirty years of zisha teapot creation experience, Master Bao is renowned for her exquisite craftsmanship and unique designs. The teapot uses precious original ore Di Cao Qing clay from the artist's personal collection, which develops a warm luster after firing.
This 400cc purple clay teapot is perfect for serving 3-4 people. Its hexagonal body resembles precision diamond cutting, featuring six flawlessly symmetrical facets with razor-sharp angles. Each clay slab requires meticulous thickness measurement, as even minor misalignment during assembly would ruin the geometry. Such complex shaping demands triple the effort of regular round teapots, showcasing the artisan's supreme skill.
The interlocking lid design demonstrates exceptional precision - the lid sits perfectly flush with the rim without wobbling when pressed. The spout, handle, and lid knob maintain perfect alignment through countless adjustments, ensuring both aesthetic harmony and smooth water flow during pouring.
The most captivating feature is the carved "dragon soaring through waves" motif. Master engravers spent three days creating this detailed relief - the powerful dragon with visible whiskers and scales emerges from layered waves with three-dimensional textures that feel smooth to touch. Strategic drying intervals between carving sessions prevented clay deformation.
Nineteen neatly arranged water outlets at the base allow full tea leaf expansion while maintaining steady flow rate. The spacious interior makes this zisha teapot ideal for brewing pu'er or black tea, with the clay's natural properties enhancing aroma retention.
Maintenance tips: Rinse with clean water after use (no detergents). Regularly polish with tea-moistened maintenance brush to develop patina. Pay special attention to cleaning the lid-rim contact area to prevent tea residue buildup.
This "Soaring Dragon" purple clay teapot serves both as functional ware and collectible art. The hexagonal form symbolizes stability while the dragon motif represents auspiciousness. Master Bao's masterpiece blends traditional craftsmanship with modern ergonomics, making it equally suitable for daily use or as a meaningful gift. For those seeking a lifelong companion in tea appreciation, this exceptional yixing teapot deserves serious consideration!
