The carved landscape pattern forms the masterpiece's highlight. Using bamboo tools on unfired clay, the artisan created three-dimensional depth through varied incision techniques. The composition follows traditional Chinese painting principles, with strategic negative space balancing the scenery. Firing-induced natural color gradations make the design appear organically grown from the teapot itself.

This handmade Yixing zisha teapot serves both practical and collectible purposes. Its 150ml capacity optimally accommodates 3-4 tea infusions without over-steeping.

Zisha teapot creation integrates geology, chemistry, and artistry. From clay refinement to firing, it undergoes over twenty processes. Each step of crafting "Yannian Zhenquan" shows veteran craftsmanship, with no mold marks visible inside or out. This dedication to manual skills makes every teapot a unique artwork.

With prolonged use, a spiritual connection develops between owner and teapot. Hand warmth gradually softens the surface luster, while tea compounds permeate the porous clay to create distinctive maintenance effects. This symbiotic evolution between user and object forms the most enchanting aspect of zisha teapot culture.
