Lantern Shape Clay Teapot Pure Handmade Yixing handmade zisha teapot
1. Description
Yixing handmade zisha clay teapots are meant for use with black and
oolong teas, as well as aged puer tea. They can also be used for
green or white tea, but the water must be allowed to cool to around
85 °C (185 °F) before pouring the water into the pot. Yixing
teapots absorb a tiny amount of tea into the pot during brewing.
After prolonged use, the pot will develop a coating that retains
the flavour and colour of the tea. It is for this reason that soap
should not be used to clean Yixing teapots. Instead, it should be
rinsed with fresh water and allowed to air-dry. A studious tea
connoisseur will only steep one type of tea in a particular pot, so
as not to corrupt the flavour that has been absorbed.Yixing clay is
famous because the good quality soil from that region creates clay
that produces collectible art pieces teapot . Besides the material,
the value also comes from the shapeand the art work on the surface,
the calligraphy or the graphic sometimes from skillful artists.
This is attributed to the unglazed nature of the teapot after
firing which retains its porous nature, which is excellent at
absorbing the flavor and aroma of tea. After prolonged use, a
patina will gradually develop on the interior of the teapot which
enhances the taste, color and aroma of the tea. Legend has it that
if a purple clay teapot has been used for a long time, one can
simply pour hot water into the teapot to brew a cup of tea.
