Masterpiece Yixing Clay Teapot Zen Lotus by Shi Futang: Sculpted Design & 24K Gold Accents
$471.43Handmade Yixing teapot with gold accents, 290cc capacity. Crafted by master Shi Futang using premium rose clay. Collectible ceramic art piece.
The Yixing zisha teapot stands as a unique representative of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. Crafted from distinctive purple clay found exclusively in Yixing, Jiangsu Province, this material develops a warm luster and excellent breathability after high-temperature firing. Today's featured piece, named "Lotus Meditation," is entirely handmade by contemporary zisha master Shi Futang.
As an important figure in Yixing's zisha community, Shi holds dual national certifications as Senior Craft Artist and Rural Revitalization Craft Master. His family maintains profound ties with this art - his cousin Shi Juntang currently chairs Jiangsu Ceramic Industry Association. Trained under veteran artisan Shao Xinhe and mentored by floral-style master Wang Yinxian, Shi excels in various teapot forms including smooth-surface, angular, and ribbed designs.
This handmade Yixing teapot showcases exceptional artistry. The body uses rare rose-red mineral clay that fires to a soft rosy hue with natural granular texture. Its 290ml capacity balances daily functionality with aesthetic refinement. The lotus-inspired silhouette features flowing lines mimicking petals, while the seedpod-shaped lid complements the overall floral motif.
Traditional manual techniques govern its creation - from clay slab forming to barrel construction and precision finishing. The surface relief stands out as craftsmen carve lotus patterns into moist clay with special tools, later adorned with 24K gold using the demanding "gold-sprinkling" technique requiring perfect adhesion for fluid metallic effects.
Practicality and artistry merge seamlessly in this purple clay teapot. The precisely angled spout ensures smooth pouring without dripping, while the ergonomic handle guarantees comfortable grip. The custom-fitted lid remains securely in place even when inverted, demonstrating deep understanding of traditional craftsmanship.
As a modern masterpiece, the "Lotus Meditation" Yixing zisha teapot harmonizes heritage with innovation. Its lotus design preserves natural vitality while presenting contemporary simplicity. Iron particles in the clay create unique color variations during firing, making each piece truly singular.
Shi's works have garnered numerous recent accolades, with this teapot continuing his high standards. The artist's engraved signature at the base serves as authenticity guarantee. Beyond functional value, this Chinese zisha teapot embodies cultural depth, offering international tea enthusiasts an ideal medium to appreciate traditional Chinese aesthetics and craftsmanship.
