Today we introduce a new Yixing zisha teapot masterpiece - "Jingzhou Stone Gourd". Crafted by national-level artisan Yu Wenyuan using precious original golden duan clay, this teapot was completed through traditional wood-firing techniques. Though marked as 0cc capacity (a special notation for artistic display), its practical size suits daily tea brewing.

The purple clay teapot's overall form exudes dignified simplicity. Its sturdy body features natural handmade textures, with three short nail-shaped feet forming a triangular base reminiscent of ancient bronze tripods. This design ensures stability while evoking historical resonance.

The true marvel lies in its firing process. Unlike modern electric/gas kilns, Master Yu employs traditional wood-firing where flames directly kiss the clay at 1300°C. Wood ash naturally adheres to the surface, creating unique chemical reactions. Each teapot develops distinctive patterns - caramelized "fire kisses" alongside the clay's golden veining.

The golden duan clay originates from Yixing's Huanglong Mountain, a sealed mining area. This surface-layer material weathered naturally for decades, exhibiting exceptional texture. Its fine granular structure enables perfect air permeability, allowing tea leaves to "breathe". Microscopic iron particles create reddish speckles during firing.

Practical advantages include: dual-pore structure absorbing tea aromas (eventually releasing fragrance with plain water), optimal wall thickness for heat retention, precision-designed spout for drip-free pouring, and wide mouth for easy cleaning. The snug-fitting lid produces crisp friction sounds when rotated.

As collectible art, this handmade Yixing teapot holds multiple values. Master Yu's 30-year expertise ensures appreciating market value. The low wood-firing success rate (20-30%) combined with rare materials enhances its exclusivity. Natural fire patterns resemble tree rings, documenting the firing journey.

Maintenance tips: Initial warm water rinse; dedicate to specific tea types; clean with soft cloth (no detergents); air-dry when stored. Over time, the surface develops a lustrous patina - the rewarding process of "nurturing" teapots.

Aesthetically, this Chinese zisha teapot serves as natural art. Its caramelized gradients elevate tea ceremony spaces, while the arched-knob design ensures secure handling. The tripod stance radiates timeless elegance even when dormant.

For international tea enthusiasts, this Yixing purple clay teapot embodies Chinese craftsmanship's spiritual props. Its organic imperfections contrast sharply with industrial products, while golden clay hues seem to encapsulate sunlight. Each steeping becomes an artistic conversation across time and space.


The "Jingzhou Stone Gourd" perfectly balances daily utility with collectible worth, showcasing earth-fire alchemy through rustic charm. Whether for personal use or as cultural gift, this traditional treasure offers tangible connection to slow craftsmanship in our fast-paced world.
