Firing nixing teapots this way is riskier than in a modern kiln and not all pieces survive the process. The teapot spent around two weeks in the kiln. The different colours and patterns on the surface of the clay are a result of the natural wood ash glaze formed by some of the pine ash when it touches the surface of the clay. The glaze is partial and only on the outside surface, leaving the nixing clay to retain its porous nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/zd6nkzuwkvtawhgk-53907685574.shopifypreview.com\/blogs\/teatime\/wood-fired-nixing-past-and-present\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/zd6nkzuwkvtawhgk-53907685574.shopifypreview.com\/blogs\/teatime\/wood-fired-nixing-past-and-present\"\u003eYou can read more about the wood fired kiln and firing process here.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Teapot was thrown and shaped by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNixing Clay pottery is one of the 4 famous types of Chinese ceramics, which include Yixing Zisha. Nixing ceramics are made in Qinzhou, Guangxi. The art is quite old, having been practiced over 1000 years. The clay is found in the surrounding area of Qinzhou, is environmentally friendly, and is used without adding any glaze, paint or other chemicals, making it a safe and healthy clay for use in teaware. Nixing clay is prized for its ability to take on a patina with use, like yixing, and for its degree of porosity. The clay is less porous than zisha but more than porcelain, making it a good clay for use when brewing oolong (similar use to Zhuni Zisha).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mudandleaves.com\/blog\/category\/nixing\"\u003eYou can read more about Nixing clay here.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation Before Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNixing Teapots should be prepared before using the first time.
