Masterpiece Quhu Ti Liang Teapot: Chai Kiln-Fired Zisha Clay with Li Wei's Engraving
$278.57Artisan Zisha teapot with chai kiln-fired sunflower-golden clay, 500cc capacity. Li Wei's engraved landscapes, ergonomic curved design, Ming-style craftsmanship.
Today I want to recommend an extraordinary Yixing purple clay teapot - the "Curved Pot with Hoop Handle". This Chinese zisha teapot combines strong practicality with high artistic value, making it perfect for both tea brewing and collection. Let me elaborate on its unique features from multiple perspectives.
The teapot was handcrafted by National Craft Artist Bao Yuhua. With decades of experience in Yixing teapot making, Master Bao skillfully blends traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. Each piece undergoes meticulous refinement, and this "Curved Pot with Hoop Handle" stands as one of his representative works.
The decorative engravings were executed by Li Wei, a Jiangsu Provincial Ceramic Art Master who serves as Dean of Wuxi Institute of Arts & Technology. Specializing in integrating calligraphic art with zisha teapot creation, Master Li demonstrated his profound artistic skills through the front-side engraving of the poetic line "Calm lakes stretch shores wide, fair winds hoist single sail high" in vigorous strokes, complemented by a lifelike landscape scene with boats, rocks and trees on the reverse.
This handmade Yixing teapot uses rare Kuijinsha clay recorded in Ming Dynasty's "Yangxian Teapot Chronicles". Belonging to rare interlayers in red clay symbiosis, this material changes hues through five consecutive wood-fired kiln processes without glaze or salt, achieving a distinctive "celestial blue" that reveals golden iridescence under sunlight, reminiscent of dawn skies.
The innovative design features continuous flowing curves from spout to hoop handle, combining softness with structural strength. The upward-arching 500ml handle ensures comfortable grip while enhancing visual appeal. Diamond-shaped filter holes enable smooth pouring without dripping.
Practically, this purple clay teapot's high-fired body maintains excellent breathability to preserve tea aromas, while gradually developing patina through prolonged use. The wide mouth facilitates leaf insertion and cleaning, with ergonomically calculated handle-spout alignment ensuring comfortable pouring.
Artistically, it manifests meticulous details: the tightly fitted lid creates vacuum resistance when rotated; the handle's inner surface features anti-slip treatment; the spout curvature produces elegant water arcs; even the base seal engraving appears impeccably executed.
Ideal for tea lovers appreciating traditional culture with modern sensibilities, this Yixing zisha teapot serves equally well as functional ware or decorative art. Brewing tea while contemplating its poetic landscapes evokes ancient scholars' leisurely sentiment of "one pot, one landscape".
Notably, each wood-fired zisha teapot develops unique coloration during firing, becoming more jade-like with prolonged use. For those seeking both practical and collectible value, this "Curved Pot with Hoop Handle" makes an exceptional choice that matures like fine wine over time.
