The Yixing purple clay teapot stands as one of the iconic representatives of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. Today's featured teapot, named "Dezhong," was handcrafted by Jiang Yaping, a national-level senior craft artist. As the esteemed disciple of renowned purple clay master Gu Shaopei, Jiang has accumulated over three decades of experience in teapot creation.

This teapot utilizes rare raw Dragon Blood clay, a precious zisha material exclusive to Huanglong Mountain in Yixing. When fired, it reveals a distinctive maroon luster and contains abundant mineral compounds that develop increasing smoothness through prolonged use. With a 500ml capacity, this handmade zisha teapot perfectly serves small tea gatherings.

The "Dezhong" showcases classical design principles. Its cylindrical body features a matching pillar-shaped knob, while the slightly domed lid employs traditional interlocking edges for perfect alignment. The intentionally widened opening accommodates whole tea leaves and simplifies cleaning.

Practical considerations permeate the design. Nine diamond-shaped filter holes at the base efficiently separate leaves while maintaining flow efficiency. The 500ml capacity strikes an ideal balance for brewing pu'er or aged white teas requiring controlled steeping.

Artistic engravings reflect literati aesthetics. The front displays plum blossoms and bamboo – symbols of moral integrity – while the reverse bears poetic calligraphy in running script: "Plum blooms through bamboo, reflecting deep in clear streams." All patterns were hand-carved with bamboo tools on unfired clay.

Crafting such teapots demands exceptional skill. From slab forming to component assembly, each step requires millimeter precision. Lid-body alignment tolerates less than 0.05mm deviation. The 15-hour firing at 1180°C presents particular challenges with Dragon Blood clay's thermal sensitivity.

This Yixing teapot enhances tea experiences through its unique advantages. The purple clay's dual-pore structure naturally absorbs tea aromas, while the thick walls retain heat effectively. Generous interior space allows full leaf expansion, optimizing flavor extraction.

Proper maintenance ensures longevity. Initial sterilization involves boiling in tea liquor. Regular cleaning without detergents prevents residue buildup, while periodic polishing with tea cloths develops natural patina. Complete drying after use maintains material integrity.


The "Dezhong" embodies both utility and collectible value, inheriting Master Gu's technical legacy while incorporating Jiang's innovations. Its timeless form and premium material maturation promise enduring appeal, whether as daily utensil or artistic heirloom.
