Premium Yixing Zisha Clay Teapot | Handcrafted Artisan Wu Xiaojun 1


The Yixing teapot is a unique representative of traditional Chinese handicrafts. Today's featured Yixing teapot originates from a renowned pottery-making family in Yixing. Created by Wu Xiaojun, a national senior craft artist with prestigious mentorship - his father Wu Yaping represents the third-generation successor of Gu Jingzhou, the master of purple clay art. Three generations of this family have dedicated themselves to the creation and study of Yixing teapots.

Named "Ru Ding" (Nipple Studs), this Chinese Yixing teapot derives its name from distinctive body design. The rounded vessel features evenly distributed nipple-like protrusions across its surface. These orderly circular embossments not only enhance three-dimensional aesthetics but create unique tactile texture. The 400ml capacity proves practical for serving 4-6 guests, balancing functionality with elegant proportions.

Crafted from rare Chenxiang pear-skin clay sourced from Yixing's Huanglong Mountain mines, this purple clay teapot requires years of natural weathering before use. The material contains golden mineral particles that form speckled textures resembling pear skin after firing. Artisans pound clay slabs over thirty times to ensure dense, uniform consistency, enhancing the teapot's breathability for gradual tea aroma absorption.

Wu Xiaojun employed complete traditional craftsmanship across 72 procedures from material preparation to kiln firing. The spout-body joint demonstrates precision engineering, creating perfect water trajectories without dripping. The lid achieves millimeter-level fit, remaining secure even when inverted. The ergonomic handle naturally conforms to finger contours.

This handmade Yixing teapot's most remarkable feature is its dual-porosity structure. The mineral-rich clay develops interconnected micro-pores during firing, isolating tea from air while maintaining optimal oxidation. This prevents tea sourness and enhances flavor complexity. Prolonged use cultivates a natural patina on the surface.

Decoratively, the Yixing zisha teapot preserves essential beauty through clay coloration and formal simplicity. The knob replicates miniature vessel shape, while the base bears artist's seal - crucial for authentication. No excessive carvings compromise its natural elegance.

Proper maintenance involves initial three-day tea rinsing for patina development. Clean residue promptly without detergents, and dry in shaded ventilation. Correct care enables the Yixing purple clay teapot to develop increasing luster over time.

Ideal for brewing pu'erh and fermented teas, its 400ml capacity allows full leaf expansion while flat-round shape retains heat. Observing subtle color shifts during infusion reveals quality clay characteristics. Long-term use imbues the vessel with lingering tea fragrance, detectable even with plain water.

Wu's Yixing teapot masterpieces gain increasing collector attention due to his commitment to individual craftsmanship - each piece requires over two months' labor. Interior hammering marks visible on the Ru Ding teapot authenticate handmade production. For tea enthusiasts, this transcends functional tool to become inheritable artwork.


This Yixing teapot embodies the essence of Chinese pottery-making traditions. From material selection to forming techniques, every process reflects profound understanding of clay properties. The pear-skin clay and nipple-stud design harmonize natural aesthetics with practical functionality, making it equally suitable for daily use or artistic collection - a companion object meant to endure through years.
