Yi xing Teapot GongFu Tea set - Han wa 200ml

The design of the Hanwa teapot is inspired by the roof tiles commonly used in ancient Han architecture. These tiles, made of clay, have a slightly semi-circular shape and excellent waterproof properties. Zisha ceramic artists creatively incorporated this shape into teapot design, resulting in the unique appearance of the Hanwa teapot.

This Yi xing teapot is handcrafted by Yixing artist Li Hu using "duan ni" clay. The spout is short and smooth, ensuring a precise pour. The handle is comfortable and easy to grip. One side of the teapot is carved with branches and magpies, symbolizing joy and success. The other side features calligraphy of the phrase "De Wei" (meaning "Savor the Taste").

"Duan ni," also known as "tuan ni," fires to a yellowish tone, offering excellent breathability and heat retention, making it ideal for brewing Gongfu teas such as Da Hong Pao, Dancong, and Pu'er.
