Legendary Art in Clay: Yang Hongwei’s Collectible Handmade Yixing Teapot with Lu Zhishen Carving
$685.71Handmade Yixing teapot with Lu Zhishen carving, 700cc Di Cao Qing clay, crafted by award-winning artist Yang Hongwei. Collector-grade artistry.
This handmade Yixing zisha teapot is named "Collective Wisdom", crafted by National Senior Craft Artist Yang Hongwei. With a generous 700cc capacity, this large purple clay teapot accommodates group tea sessions. Made from authentic Di Cao Qing clay from Yixing's mineral base, the material transforms into deep brown with metallic speckles after high-temperature firing, achieving a surface as smooth as infant skin.
The robust design features Lu Zhishen uprooting a willow tree from Water Margin carved in bold relief. The spout mimics thick branches, the handle replicates tree trunk curvature, and the lid displays realistic tree ring patterns - collectively recreating the legendary scene. Precise carvings show dynamic character postures, detailed willow leaves, and three-dimensional soil textures around roots.
Yang Hongwei, from a renowned zisha teapot-making family and disciple of Xu-style inheritors, integrates traditional culture into designs. This china purple clay teapot preserves traditional craftsmanship: three days of clay-beating with wooden mallets alone. Inner walls retain finger-formed textures impossible to machine-replicate.
The rare Di Cao Qing clay from Huanglong Mountain's lower strata contains rich iron and quartz. Fired at 1180°C, it develops dual-pore structure for temperature regulation during brewing, preserving aroma without scalding leaves. Mineral absorption through use gradually enhances the Yixing teapot's luster.
Millimeter-precise lid fitting prevents leakage even when full. The seven-hole filter ensures smooth pour while blocking leaves. The 700cc volume suits pu'er tea requiring quick brewing, serving 4-5 people. Spacious interior allows full leaf expansion for optimal flavor extraction.
More than functional teaware, this spiritual prop bears cultural heritage. The base carries artist's seal, while carvings showcase Chinese literary themes. As a fully handmade zisha teapot, every detail reflects dedication - 20 handle curvature adjustments and repeated angle tests for perfect pouring.
Maintenance requires rinsing after use and air-drying upside-down. Regular polishing with tea cloth develops patina over time. This large Yixing purple clay teapot serves as both brewing tool and art display in tea rooms or living spaces.
Collectors value three highlights: master craftsmanship, literary carvings, and rare clay. As machine-made teapots dominate markets, such handmade Yixing zisha teapot pieces grow increasingly precious. Yang intentionally enhanced volumetric presence without compromising weight - precise wall thickness calculations ensure sturdiness with comfortable handling. The tree-knot knob complements the theme while ensuring grip comfort.
Ideal for fermented teas like pu'er and aged white tea, its spacious body and clay's heat retention optimize aroma development. When heated, the teapot exhibits subtle color shifts through "breathing" pores - hallmark of premium zisha teapot. With prolonged use, this handmade Yixing teapot develops unique character, becoming a distinctive centerpiece in any tea ceremony.
