Handmade Yixing Zisha Teapot Ziye Shibiao (子冶石瓢壶)

Knowledge:

China, the cradle of tea culture, has witnessed a long-standing history of tea utensils paralleling tea. Tea sets have evolved through the ages, reflecting technological advancements and cultural nuances of different eras. From the Tang Dynasty’s favored
celadon sets to the Song Dynasty’s white porcelain and the Ming Dynasty’s prevalence of porcelain and purple sand, each period tells a story.

Craftship:

This Handmade Yixing Teapot Zisha Ziye Shibiao is crafted from authentic Jiangpo mud, a rare and sought-after material unearthed from the slopes where ancient mining paths once lay. Jiangpo
mud is celebrated for its distinctive features. Characterized by a unique granular structure, it offers a tactile experience that’s both rough and smooth. Its color spectrum spans warm, earthy shades, which transform into more vivid and lustrous tones
over time with continuous use. Thanks to its excellent thermal conductivity, it ensures even heat distribution during the tea-brewing process. Moreover, its superior breathability works to preserve and intensify the tea’s flavor, delivering a brew
that’s more aromatic and mellow. Blending traditional handmade techniques with the classic Ziye Shibiao design, this teapot not only elevates the tea-tasting experience but also serves as a piece of art, bridging modern tea enthusiasts to centuries-old
Chinese craftsmanship.
