Zisha Teapot: A Millennia-Old Craftsmanship Reimagined in Modern Times – Appreciating Xu Liuming’s "Persimmon Round Teapot"


In traditional Chinese tea culture, Zisha teapots hold an irreplaceable status. Priced at 2,100 CNY, the "Persimmon Round Teapot" exemplifies the essence of Eastern aesthetics through its classic form and meticulous craftsmanship. Its rounded body, reminiscent of a persimmon fruit, paired with a sleek, upright spout, preserves the rustic charm of Ming Dynasty Zisha teapots while embracing modern preferences for minimalist lines. As a fully handcrafted masterpiece by Xu Liuming, a national-level craft artist, this teapot is not merely a functional utensil but a collectible work of art.

Material Excellence


The core value of Zisha teapots lies first in their material quality. Crafted from rare Huangjin Duan clay sourced from Yixing’s Huanglong Mountain, this teapot contains 8% iron content. Fired at 1,200°C, the clay reveals a unique golden-sand shimmer. Its 350cc capacity balances practicality for group tea sessions while preventing rapid cooling. Remarkably, prolonged use nurtures a jade-like patina, with the initial pale gold hue gradually deepening to amber—a hallmark of premium Zisha teapots that "beautify with age."

Artisanal Mastery


This teapot showcases traditional hand-building techniques in their purest form. Master Xu employs over 30 tools to execute ancient methods—pounding, shaping, inlaying, and joining—from molding clay slabs to sculpting the knob. The precision of the "heaven encloses earth" lid structure and the "three-curve spout’s" pour angle reflect hundreds of adjustments. Unlike machine-made imitations, the varying wall thickness and organic clay texture bear the rhythm of the artisan’s breath, embodying irreplicable artistic value.

Creator’s Legacy


Xu Liuming, a leading figure in Zisha artistry, adheres to principles of "authentic materials, refined skill, and profound meaning." With four decades of expertise, including restoration work on Ming-Qing teapots for the Palace Museum, his deep understanding of classical forms is unmatched. His award-winning works, collected by institutions like the China National Arts and Crafts Museum, bear his hand-carved seal "Crafted by Liuming"—a mark of quality and collectibility.

Philosophy in Form


Aesthetic harmony defines this teapot. The persimmon-inspired shape symbolizes autumnal abundance, while the tripod base subtly echoes the "round heaven, square earth" cosmological concept. The knob’s persimmon calyx motif interacts dynamically with the body’s curves. When filled, the clay’s dual-pore structure resonates to amplify tea aromas—a fusion of utility and symbolism that explains Zisha’s enduring appeal over six centuries.

Value Proposition


The 2,100 CNY price reflects multiple factors: Huangjin Duan clay costs ~3,000 CNY/kg, full handmade production yields 1 teapot/day, and a national artist’s labor far exceeds standard rates. Compared to machine-made counterparts, this piece holds significant appreciation potential—Xu’s auction prices have risen 15% annually over five years. For collectors, it represents both a daily ritual object and a cultural heirloom.

Touching this teapot’s warm surface, one senses not just the artisan’s touch but the pulse of China’s millennia-old craft civilization. From Gong Chun’s Ming-era "Tree Gall Teapot" to modern innovations, Zisha has perpetuated Eastern aesthetics through "vessels embodying Dao." The "Persimmon Round Teapot" honors tradition while vitalizing ancient skills—each pour becomes a dialogue with history.
