This is an yixing teapot made from the rarer red clay known as "zhuni." As you can see from the photos, zhuni clay has a slight bumpy appearance. The clay will develop a shine from use. Zhuni clay is prized for its ability to preserve the full spectrum of flavour and fragrance of a tea. It is also the most difficult clay to fire as it is more likely to break during the process.
You can read more about zhuni clay in our blog entry here.

This teapot is the classic "shuiping" style, very popular in Taiwan and Hong Kong. This pot is known as "half-handmade" as the sculptor uses a molding tool to shape the body, and uses his hands for the handle, spout, holes, and smoothing out the body. In fact, no machine was used in it's shaping as the use of the tool is entirely manual.
You can read more about half handmade teapots in our blog entry here.

This pot was made byLin Hanpeng and Chen Chunhong Studio.

Preparation Before Use
Yixing Teapots should be prepared before using the first time. This is called "opening the pot". It removes the dust from firing the teapot.
We recommend rinsing the teapot under warm water two or three times, then filling the teapot with boiling water and emptying it out two to three times. After this the teapot is ready for use.

The skill of the maker of this pot is extraordinary!

The skill of the maker of this pot is extraordinary! It is a joy to hold, and it will delight the senses for many, many years. If you love exquisite teas, steeping in Yixing is a truly life-changing experience. Hyperbole? See for yourself. ;-)

This teapot is a delight.

This teapot is a delight. The craftsmanship is superb, making the handling of the teapot so easy. The medium-fast pour is precise and there are no drips. The lid fit is great. And looking at and feeling the clay is just a joy. I have been using the teapot for sheng puer and it brews a fantastic tea. The particular pot I got has a volume of 140ml, which is perfect. Can't wait to order more from mud and leaves.

I’m very happy with my purchase.

It took 20 days for my teapot to arrive to Virginia from China. It was so nicely packaged. A lot of care was put into making sure it wouldn’t break, and I appreciate that so much. I love my new teapot, and had my first pot of tea today just a few minutes after it arrived! It came with a certificate from the potter and a very nice card from Siyan. I’m very happy with my purchase. Thank you!
