An eclectic-flared foot finishes the bottom of this stylish, partially handmade teapot crafted in authentic Duan ni (a mix of purple and green clay).
Duan ni clay has been procured for centuries from only the foothills near Yixing in Jiangsu province. Duan ni clay fires somewhat porous, and with continued use will retain a tea’s oils and essence.
This teapot is finished in a cool mushroom or greyed crushed-granite tone.
It is widely believed a well-seasoned pot brews the best tea. Therefore, Yixing enthusiasts devote one pot to each type of tea so to not mix flavors.
Yixing teapots are usually more petite than western versions and are specifically designed for Gongfu steeping. The Gongfu method enlists a generous amount of tea with smaller amounts of water for shorter steeping times with multiple brews. Many believe Gongfu steeping extracts a tea’s truest character and its greatest volume for each pot of leaf.
