Bianfu Flat Belly Zhuni Zisha Teapot 90ml


€98,00

This Bianfu Flat Belly Zhuni Zisha Teapot takes a refined twist on the classic “扁腹” or “flat drum” teapot shape, inspired by the balance of simplicity and elegance. Known for its low, wide body and spacious opening, this teapot offers ease of use and showcases the traditional artistry of zhuni (red clay). The silhouette has a graceful, flowing spout—adding an element of refinement that gives this piece an elegant appearance beyond the standard Bianfu form.

Rooted in philosophy, this shape embodies both the “理” (principle) and “趣” (charm) described by Japanese tea scholar Oranda-kun, who observed that true beauty in form is achieved by blending structure and subtle allure. This teapot’s gentle, fluid lines make it a charming piece to elevate any tea session. Perfect for a variety of teas, including oolongs and black teas.

Comes with Artist signature and certificate.

We present here a half-handmade collection of Zisha Purple Clay teapots, teacups from Yixing. Each piece is one of its kind and handmade by local ceramic artists in Yixing.

Yixing pots are traditionally made from Zisha (‘purple sand’), a natural clay known for its porous nature and excellent heat retention properties.

The beauty of a Yixing pot lies in its simplicity and functionality. Each pot is often handcrafted, ensuring that no two pots are exactly alike. This individuality is further enhanced over time, as the porous clay absorbs the flavors and aromas of the teas brewed within, gradually seasoning the pot.

Ideal for brewing oolong, black, and pu-erh teas, Yixing pots are valued for their ability to enhance the depth and complexity of tea flavors. The clay’s mineral composition interacts gently with the tea, softening and rounding its taste, making every brew a unique experience.

The aesthetic appeal of Yixing pots also lies in their diverse range of styles, shapes, and colors, from classic reds and browns to more modern designs. They are not just functional tools for brewing tea but also works of art, appreciated by tea lovers and collectors alike.

This teapot features filter, holds approximately 120ml of liquid and pours empty in approximately 5 seconds.
