Today I would like to recommend a new Yixing purple clay teapot - the Wa Piao Teapot. This handmade zisha teapot was personally crafted by national-level craft artist Zhang Juxian using traditional manual techniques. With a capacity of 260ml, it's perfect for daily tea brewing.

The most distinctive feature lies in its material. This chinese yixing teapot uses precious Di Cao Qing clay from Huanglongshan mining area in Yixing, a natural zisha mineral. After processes including screening, weathering, and grinding, the clay develops unique purplish-brown tones. Teapots fired with this material not only exhibit warm luster but also better release tea aromas, making brews taste remarkably mellow.

The tightly fitting lid remains sealed even when inverted, demonstrating exquisite craftsmanship.
