The new Yixing zisha teapot "Han Jun" has been officially released, showcasing a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern aesthetics. Crafted from precious original Di Cao Qing clay sourced from deep veins in Huanglong Mountain, Yixing, Jiangsu, this material features fine texture and abundant natural minerals. After high-temperature firing, it develops a warm maroon luster. Purple clay teapots made with this clay not only exhibit elegant appearance but also gradually absorb tea aromas during prolonged use, enhancing brewing quality.

Master artisan Zhu Weiping, born in 1956 from Yixing's renowned ceramic family, apprenticed under his grandfather Zhu Kexin - one of the Seven Zisha Elders who laid foundations for modern zisha art. Inheriting all 18 traditional teapot-making techniques while incorporating innovation, Zhu holds memberships in both Jiangsu Ceramic Association and China Arts and Crafts Society, solidifying his professional standing.

This Chinese yixing teapot maintains complete manual production from clay selection to final shaping. Traditional slab-forming techniques create subtle handmade textures unreplicable by machines. The knob-handle ratio undergoes ergonomic calculations for visual harmony. Based on classical Han Jun design, it features modernized fuller curves and adjusted spout angles for concentrated water flow, balancing heritage with contemporary functionality.
