Award-Winning Dragon Zisha Teapot: Master Fan Zhen's Collectible Ceramic Art
$300.00National-certified 90cc Zisha teapot with golden Duan clay, dragon engravings, and 9-hole design by award-winning ceramic masters Fan Zhen and Zhang Zhibao.
Yixing City in Jiangsu Province, China is known as the "Hometown of Zisha Teapots". The purple clay teapots produced here have a history spanning over six centuries. Today's featured Yixing zisha teapot is an exquisite collaborative creation - the Dragon Dominance Set, crafted by two national-level craftsmen.
This handmade Yixing teapot's most distinctive feature is its "Dual National Certification". Both creator Fan Zhen and carver Zhang Zhibao are state-recognized professionals. Each piece comes with video authentication to guarantee authentic handmade craftsmanship, ensuring collectors' confidence in their purchase.
The teapot uses premium millet-yellow duan clay, a rare variety within the zisha clay family. Its fresh millet-like color gradually transforms into warm golden tones through tea infusion. This porous clay perfectly preserves tea's original flavor while preventing bitterness, making it suitable for brewing various tea types.
Designed with 90ml capacity, this Chinese Yixing zisha teapot accommodates personal use or sharing with 2-3 companions. The spout ensures smooth pouring, while nine filter holes effectively separate leaves, maintaining clear liquor without leaf fragments.
The body carvings by Zhang Zhibao, protégé of master artisan Li Shangqing, showcase exquisite craftsmanship. The dragon motif features lifelike scales, naturally rendered claws, and flowing whiskers. The precise engraving depth balances aesthetics with comfortable grip.
Creator Fan Zhen from a zisha pottery family inherits both maternal techniques (specializing in complex floral designs from Yixing Zisha Factory) and mentorship from master Cui Longxi. His expertise spans round, square, and ribbed teapot styles. The flawless lid-body fit demonstrates meticulous engineering.
This purple clay teapot set blends traditional and modern elements. The dragon pearl knob complements body carvings, while the ergonomic handle ensures comfortable grip. Three stable feet prevent tipping during placement.
Maintaining Yixing teapots requires patient care. Dedicate it to one tea type, rinse with water after use (avoid detergents), and polish regularly with tea cloth to develop natural luster. A good zisha teapot becomes more companionable with age.
This handmade Yixing zisha teapot offers both utility and collectible value. Fan Zhen's award-winning works, including gold-prize pieces from national handicraft competitions, make it both functional art and heritage piece for tea enthusiasts.
Purchase includes custom brocade box with silk lining and authenticity certificate bearing both artists' signatures/seals. Ideal for personal use or as tasteful gift, it embodies Chinese artisans' respect for nature and pursuit of perfection through its harmonious blend of traditional Eastern aesthetics and modern functionality.
