Yixing Zisha Teapot “Shuiping” – Zhu Ni (red clay), 120ml

Description

Introduction

A compact, well-balanced pot whose name refers to how it floats level in water. Zhu Ni’s dense body helps lift bright aromas.

Specifications

Craftsmanship

Semi-handmade: the body is formed in a plaster mould and then refined by hand – trimming, joining the spout and handle, and burnishing. Consistent in shape and good value for daily use.

Recommended Teas

High-aroma oolongs such as Dancong and Tieguanyin

Before First Use

Rinse the pot inside and out with hot water, then soak it in clean hot water for a short while and let it dry. Brew and discard a first pot of the tea you plan to use. See our Tea Education article on seasoning a new pot.

Care

Empty the leaves after each session, rinse with clean hot water only (no detergent) and air-dry with the lid off. Ideally dedicate each pot to one type of tea. Handmade items vary slightly in colour and capacity; photos are for reference.
