The Yixing purple clay teapot stands as a unique representative of traditional Chinese handicrafts. This particular teapot, named "Joy of Fish," was crafted by renowned artisan Zhou Jianchun, who holds the professional title of senior craft artist equivalent to university professor status - the highest recognition in China's handicraft field. His creations blend traditional charm with modern aesthetic elements.

This Yixing zisha teapot involved collaboration with two provincial-level masters: Chu Lizhi responsible for body design and Xu Nan specializing in surface decoration. Their combined expertise resulted in both elegant form and intricate details. The lifelike swimming fish patterns adorn the surface, embodying the auspicious meaning of "abundance year after year."

Crafted from rare Dragon Blood Clay from Zhou's personal collection, this zisha teapot undergoes unique color transformations during firing, transitioning from dark red to deep purple. The material's exceptional porosity optimally releases tea aromas. With 450ml capacity, this mid-sized teapot features specially designed spout for drip-free pouring, ergonomic handle, and perfectly fitted lid.

The creation process involves dozens of complex steps from material selection to high-temperature firing at 1260°C. Zhou employed traditional slab-building techniques ensuring uniform wall thickness. Master Xu's clay inlay technique creates three-dimensional fish patterns that exhibit subtle color transitions when warmed by tea, achieving dynamic visual effects unattainable in ordinary purple clay teapots.

Collectors value it for triple significance: collaborative craftsmanship by three masters, scarce material worth, and tea-enhancing functionality. Proper maintenance involves initial seasoning with tea, gentle cleaning without detergents, and air-dry storage.
