Premium Yixing Clay Teapot: Handcrafted Artisan Zisha Pot with Antique Design 1


This Yixing teapot, named "Ruyi Dezhong," was crafted by Jiang Yaping, a distinguished disciple of renowned zisha teapot master Gu Shaopei. Jiang Yaping, a National Senior Craft Artist of China, has long specialized in the design and creation of purple clay teapots.

The teapot utilizes raw "Pear Skin" Dahongpao clay from original mineral sources, with a 260ml capacity. The warm-toned clay features unique granular textures resembling pear skin. Fourteen diamond-shaped water outlets inside the pot ensure smooth pouring while effectively filtering tea leaves. The porous nature of Yixing clay allows optimal tea leaf respiration, enhancing aroma concentration in brewed tea.

Based on the classic Dezhong shape, this zisha teapot exhibits refined proportions and balanced structure. The broad shoulders harmonize with the curved spout, while the bridge-shaped knob combines functionality with elegance.

Ceramic art master Li Wei, a Jiangsu Provincial Ceramic Artist and professor at Wuxi Institute of Arts & Technology, executed the decorations. The front displays master Chen Peiqiu's iconic "Peony Poetry Scene" carving, depicting blooming peonies with exquisite petal details. The reverse bears the poetic inscription: "National beauty glows with morning wine, Celestial fragrance dyes evening robes," perfectly echoing the floral motif.

Users are advised to dedicate specific teapots to particular tea varieties for flavor preservation. Maintenance simply requires prompt cleaning and occasional tea broth seasoning.
