The zisha teapot showcases distinctive shapes. Its rounded body flows with smooth contours, supported by three sturdy miniature legs that elevate it like sculptural art. The meticulously polished surface offers silky tactile comfort. The spout curves elegantly from the vessel, ensuring drip-free pouring, while the ergonomic handle seamlessly blends into the form.

The lid decoration captivates most - a vividly carved lion symbolizing auspiciousness and strength in Chinese culture perches atop, its detailed mane contrasting with minimalist styling. Traditional carvings adorn the body: a delicate lotus flower accompanied by poetic inscription "Fragrance Travels Far Yet Remains Fresh," transforming the teapot into three-dimensional ink painting.
