Master Yang Peng's 1970s Da Hong Pao Clay Smiling Cherry Teapot – 120cc Handcrafted Artistry
$342.86Handmade Yixing zisha teapot using vintage Da Hong Pao clay. Exhibits crimson hues, unique surface texture, and optimized mineral composition for superior tea brewing. 120cc capacity.
This teapot crafted by Master Yang Peng employs exceptionally rare material—1970s Dahongpao clay from Fudong Township, Yixing City, China. Originating from the small coal mining area bordering Rentu Village and Hongwei Village, this interbedded tender clay contains abundant iron oxide. With a remarkable shrinkage ratio of 45%-55%, the clay demands extraordinary craftsmanship as slight mishandling during shaping inevitably causes cracks or deformation.
The Yixing zisha teapot material exhibits magical transformation—freshly mined ores appear pale goose-yellow but mature into vivid vermilion through high-temperature firing. Unlike garish painted surfaces, this red hue carries jade-like luminosity. Close observation reveals delicate creased textures resembling crumpled silk, known as the signature "valley wrinkle" effect of Dahongpao clay.
Master Yang's expertise proves indispensable. Beyond controlling premium clay sources, his two decades of vermilion clay teapot experience enables unique solutions. Where ordinary artisans fail with >50% shrinkage clay, Yang developed special patting techniques and shade-drying methods to successfully create this 120ml Aubergine-style teapot.
The handmade Yixing teapot adopts the "Smiling Cherry" form with plump contours. Its carefully calculated height facilitates single-handed grip while allowing full tea leaf expansion. The triple-curved spout ensures drip-free pouring, while the ergonomic handle prevents fatigue during prolonged use. The precision-fitted lid remains stable even when inverted.
The surface texture requires clarification—not carved decoration but natural thermal reaction. At 1180°C kiln temperatures, iron elements oxidize while high shrinkage creates micro-wrinkles. These organic patterns grant each Chinese zisha teapot unique "skin" with light-responsive dimensionality.
For tea brewing, initiate with pot-opening ritual: simmer with pure water and tea leaves for 1 hour. This activates the purple clay teapot's pores for optimal aroma absorption. The dual-porosity structure excellently regulates water temperature, ideal for pu'erh and black teas. Prolonged use develops deepening patina through tea oil penetration.
Practical design defines this Yixing purple clay teapot. The 120ml capacity serves 2-3 persons, while 200g weight ensures easy handling. The low center of gravity guarantees stability, complemented by polished base preventing surface scratches.
Collectors value multiple aspects: nearly depleted 1970s Dahongpao material (now mining prohibited), entirely manual craftsmanship evident in interior seam lines, and Master Yang's seal marking authentication. As the artist's reputation grows, this Chinese Yixing teapot's worth appreciates correspondingly.
Maintenance requires attention: remove residue post-use with soft cloth (no detergents). Store ventilated away from sunlight. Remove mineral deposits with lemon-juice cotton swabs. Proper care enables decades of service, transforming this spiritual prop into transgenerational tea culture heritage.
