The Yixing teapot is a representative of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. The teapot we introduce today, named "Qin Quan," is crafted from classic purple clay with a capacity of 160cc. It serves not only as a practical tool for daily tea brewing but also carries over two millennia of historical and cultural significance.

This purple clay teapot draws its name from ancient Chinese history. After Emperor Qin Shi Huang unified China, he implemented standardized weights and measures. The counterweight (known as "Quan") used in scales became a standardized measurement tool. The teapot’s design mimics the shape of these Qin-era weights, allowing artisans to embed historical narratives into functional teaware.

Visually, the Yixing teapot exudes dignified elegance. Its body tapers upward from the base, mirroring the upright form of ancient weights, with smooth, natural contours. The short, sturdy spout ensures controlled pouring without excess flair. The recessed lid fits seamlessly into the mouth, while the arched bridge-shaped knob adds refined simplicity.

Crafted from Yixing’s unique purple clay, this handmade zisha teapot utilizes local mineral-rich soil. After processes like screening, aging, and hammering, the clay becomes exceptionally workable. Teapots made from this material develop a warm luster over time, deepening in color with use. Additionally, the porous nature of purple clay enhances tea aroma extraction, yielding richer brews.

The 160cc capacity strikes a practical balance—preventing rapid cooling while optimizing multiple infusions. Its compact size allows easy single-handed use, ideal for intimate tea sessions. The short spout ensures smooth, drip-free pouring.

Maintenance is key for purple clay teapots. New teapots should first be boiled in tea water to eliminate earthy odors. Dedicate specific teapots to particular tea types to let the clay absorb distinct fragrances. Rinse with water only, avoiding detergents. Over time, a natural patina forms, marking the passage of shared moments.

The Qin Quan design embodies thoughtful details. The snug lid preserves aroma while simplifying cleaning. The arched knob combines aesthetics with grip stability. The slightly rounded belly grants tea leaves ample space to unfurl, maximizing flavor release.


As functional art, this Chinese Yixing teapot merges utility and beauty. Unlike fragile porcelain, its durable clay withstands thermal shocks for worry-free use. Minimalist lines showcase Eastern aesthetics through pure form—a philosophy still influencing modern teaware design.


For tea enthusiasts, handmade Yixing teapots serve as both tools and collectibles. Historic designs like Qin Quan grow more cherished with use. Each touch of its surface connects users to artisanal warmth, bridging daily rituals with China’s cultural legacy.


Increasingly, global tea lovers admire Yixing teapots not just for brewing but also for their craftsmanship. Pieces like Qin Quan, conveying history through form, become cross-cultural ambassadors. When people worldwide share tea from the same vessel, cultural barriers gently dissolve.
