Exquisite 180cc Yixing Zisha Teapot: Artisan-Crafted Vermilion Clay Masterpiece
$257.14Handcrafted Yixing vermilion clay teapot (180cc) with compact design for optimal heat retention. Artisan Mei Jia's work features polished surfaces and a timeless silhouette for elevated tea brewing.
The Yixing purple clay teapot is one of the representative traditional handicrafts in China, valued for both practical use and collectible worth. This particular teapot called "Yunxiang" has a 180ml capacity, ideal for daily tea brewing. Crafted from raw ore vermilion clay, its high-density material effectively concentrates tea aromas while showcasing vibrant reddish hues reminiscent of ripe persimmons.
Artisan Mei Jia, a skilled young craftsperson from the Fan Family Teapot Workshop, created this piece under the supervision of master Weiqun Fan. Maintaining classical design elements, the teapot features a rounded body resembling a full belly, tapering naturally towards the base. The subtly inward-curving shoulder transitions into a short neck, achieving visual harmony.
The slightly domed lid seamlessly integrates with the body contours, while the knob echoes the main shape. Its single-curved spout ensures smooth pouring without dripping, seamlessly attached to the vessel. The carefully angled handle provides comfortable grip and heat protection during pouring.
Surface treatment using the bright needle technique involves repeated polishing with ox-horn tools, compacting clay particles to create jade-like luster. This traditional process enhances both aesthetics and structural durability.
As a classic "bare vessel" design, this zisha teapot masterfully demonstrates beauty through pure form without decorative carvings. The balanced curves evoke the serenity of a full moon when viewed sideways. The vermilion clay's density makes it particularly suitable for aromatic teas, with prolonged use developing a characteristic patina through tea absorption.
Proper maintenance involves prompt rinsing without detergents, air-drying upside down, and regular polishing with tea cloths. The "Yunxiang" exemplifies traditional craftsmanship through details like hidden joint connections and precision-fitting lid that rotates smoothly without wobbling.
This handmade Yixing teapot uses naturally filtered clay without chemical additives. Its moderate size allows single-handed operation, with heat-retaining properties ideal for pu'erh and oolong teas. The flat base ensures stability, while the 180° aligned handle-spout configuration guarantees balanced pouring.
As collectibles, purple clay teapot prices reflect both craftsmanship and artist potential. Mei Jia's works under Fan's mentorship combine tradition with contemporary sensibility, showing promising appreciation value. Daily use gradually deepens the clay's color and luster through tea infusion - a rewarding process mirroring the cultivation of spiritual props.
Authentic Yixing teapots require patient "seasoning". Initial subtlety gives way to deepening hues and soft radiance over time, allowing users to witness the clay's beautiful transformation through sustained interaction.
