The handmade Yixing zisha teapot utilizes premium Da Hong Pao clay from Yixing, Jiangsu - among the rarest materials for purple clay teapot production. Rich in mineral content, this clay develops warm reddish tones after high-temperature firing. Its oily texture becomes increasingly lustrous with daily use, revealing delicate granular surfaces under touch.

Surface engraving features the complete Heart Sutra text through manual micro-carving techniques. Each 0.3mm-deep character maintains readability without compromising structural integrity. This demanding process requires direct carving on moist clay bodies - any error ruins the entire piece.

Using Chinese zisha teapot for brewing offers unique benefits. The porous clay absorbs tea aromas while gradually developing patina. Da Hong Pao clay particularly enhances pu'erh and black teas. Regular tea-rinsing and gentle polishing transform the body color from vermilion to deep amber over time.
