Master Zhuang Qifang's Award-Winning Yixing Teapot: Celestial Azure Zhu Ni Craftsmanship
$342.86Master Zhuang Qifang's museum-grade Yixing teapot boasts a unique Round Pearl silhouette, crafted from premium Celestial Azure Zhu Ni clay (260cc). Award-winning artistry meets timeless utility.
This handmade Yixing purple clay teapot named "Round Pearl" was personally crafted by national-level craft and fine arts master Zhuang Qifang. Made from precious celestial azure vermilion clay with a 260ml capacity, it serves both daily tea brewing and collection purposes. As representatives of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, each purple clay teapot embodies artisans' wisdom and dedication, with this "Round Pearl" being an exceptional masterpiece.
The sky-blue vermilion clay, resembling post-rain azure skies with subtle grayish-blue tones, forms natural luster after high-temperature firing. Master Zhuang excels in processing this rare material, preserving its natural color while showcasing unique textures through repeated clay kneading and hammering techniques to ensure structural integrity.
Zhuang Qifang, a leading figure in Chinese zisha teapot craftsmanship, holds national master titles and has won gold medals at the Yibo Cup and China Arts and Crafts Hundred Flowers Award - equivalent to the "Oscars" of teapot artistry. His works collected by museums worldwide, this teapot maintains his signature standards with meticulous quality control throughout production.
The teapot's design features a pearl-like rounded body with leak-proof lid alignment. Its mathematically calculated spout ensures smooth pouring without dripping, while the ergonomic handle provides comfortable grip. The minimalist aesthetic highlights the natural beauty of Yixing purple clay, making it functional art for tea tables.
As practical tea ware, this 260ml zisha teapot suits 2-3 drinkers for brewing various teas. The dual-porous structure of celestial azure clay absorbs tea aromas, developing patina over time. Its natural thermal retention keeps tea warm longer. Regular cleaning with soft cloth enhances surface luster.
For collectors, this Yixing teapot offers triple value: technical mastery through dozens of precise manufacturing stages, artistic innovation blending modern aesthetics with classical forms, and cultural significance as part of Yixing's intangible heritage preserving centuries-old craftsmanship.
Proper maintenance involves initial 24-hour tea soaking, avoiding chemical detergents, regular rinsing, and periodic drying. Correct care allows the purple clay teapot to develop richer patina over years, becoming a cherished companion.
This "Round Pearl" serves as both functional tool and inheritable artwork, reflecting users' pursuit of quality living. As Zhuang's works gain market popularity, this teapot may become a collectible star, demonstrating traditional Chinese craftsmanship wisdom through humble tea vessels.
