Product Description
The Jingzhou Shih Piao teapot is one of the classic shapes in Zisha teapots, known for its elegant and stately design. Its triangular structure is well-balanced, with a harmonious alignment between the spout, handle, and knob. The smooth, powerful lines make it a perfect combination of practicality and artistry. Handcrafted by renowned Zisha artisan Wang Yuefen, this teapot showcases exquisite craftsmanship and profound traditional techniques. With a capacity of approximately 330ml, it is ideal for tea sessions with one to three people, meeting both daily and ceremonial tea needs.
Zi Ni clay is celebrated for its fine texture and excellent breathability. Over time, the surface develops a warm, glossy patina, adding to its antique charm. The stable properties and versatility of Zi Ni make it suitable for brewing a wide variety of teas, especially those with higher fermentation or roasting levels, such as:
Pu-erh Tea (ripe and some aged raw tea)
Oolong Tea (Wuyi Rock Tea, Da Hong Pao, Tie Guan Yin, etc.)
Black Tea (e.g., Dianhong, Qimen Hong)
The clay’s breathability enhances the release of tea aromas and improves the tea’s richness, offering a more layered tasting experience.
The set includes a matching Zi Ni tea cup with a capacity of approximately 120ml. The cup is adorned with intricately carved classical poetic verses, showcasing a seamless blend of calligraphy and Zisha artistry. This poetic touch adds cultural depth to the tea set, making the cup not only functional but also a delightful element to appreciate during tea sessions.
