Crafted from rare Da Hong Pao clay sourced from private mineral reserves, this purple clay teapot utilizes material renowned for its vibrant vermilion hue and exceptional breathability. Through meticulous proportioning and repeated hammering, the clay achieves refined flexibility. After firing, the teapot body exhibits jade-like warmth with natural luster, designed with 230cc capacity ideal for tea sessions with friends.

The zisha teapot's form draws inspiration from ripe pumpkins. Its full-bodied silhouette replicates the vegetable's plump shape, adorned with delicate ribbed patterns that balance realism and artistic beauty. The lid demonstrates extraordinary craftsmanship through "reverse-sealing" technique, achieving perfect alignment that remains secure even when inverted.


Innovative details abound in the knob and handle design. The knob resembles a curved pumpkin vine with visible textures and tactile surface fuzz. The ergonomic handle mimics sturdy vines, extending into a naturally curled leaf that appears freshly picked. The spout creatively mimics a leaf-wrapped funnel, featuring diamond-shaped nine-hole filtration ensuring smooth pouring without dripping.


This handmade Yixing teapot's uniqueness lies in its complete manual creation. From clay shaping to detailed carving, every process relies on artisan's hands. Force control proves crucial - ribbed patterns require hundreds of adjustments. Achieving millimeter precision between lid and body demands over 20 days' work.


As collectible art, this Yixing purple clay teapot combines utility with cultural significance. The pumpkin motif symbolizes harvest and fortune in Chinese tradition, while curved vines represent resilient vitality. The Da Hong Pao clay develops richer patina through use, resembling nurtured jade over time.


Jiang Yaping's creation showcases contemporary innovation in zisha art. Building upon classic pumpkin shapes, he incorporates dynamic vine-leaf elements that inject growth rhythm into static teaware. This nature-inspired yet elevated design philosophy bridges traditional charm with modern aesthetics.


For collectors, this Chinese Yixing teapot holds multilayered value. It represents peak craftsmanship of younger-generation artisans while documenting technical evolution. The 230cc capacity balances daily use with aesthetic appreciation. As years pass, this meticulously crafted piece will grow increasingly precious.


Proper maintenance involves initial tea-seasoning to avoid thermal shock, prompt cleaning after use, and careful handling to prevent impacts. Appropriate care enhances the clay's luster, gradually forming distinctive patina.


The "Tall Pumpkin" stands as a landmark in contemporary zisha art, perfectly merging natural elements with craft aesthetics. It perpetuates Yixing's centuries-old tradition while pioneering modern artistic directions. Whether as functional teaware or art collection, this masterpiece proves worthy of appreciation.
