This is an exceptionally unique Yixing purple clay teapot named "Wine Pot". With a miniature capacity of approximately 10cc, it's specifically designed for savoring strong liquors. Though compact, every detail showcases the charm of traditional zisha craftsmanship. The material comes from aged purple clay sourced from Yixing's original mines in China. Naturally weathered for years, this refined clay exhibits deep purplish-brown tones that become smoother and more lustrous with use.

Proper maintenance requires gradual seasoning with tea before initial use, allowing the clay to absorb aromas. After each use, thorough cleaning and air-drying are essential. Regular handling will develop a beautiful patina, though this delicate piece should only be gently wiped with soft cloth.
