The Đức Chung teapot shape (also known as Bình Cái Đức Chung) is one of the foremost classic shapes in the world of tea ware. Born from the ideal of uprightness, integrity and virtue, the shape has a solid columnar body, a perfectly flush-fitting lid and a balanced handle.
With a capacity of 160ml, this piece is the ideal choice for quiet afternoon tea sessions, when you are seeking balance and a chance to settle the mind.
The teapot is crafted from rare zhuni clay. What makes zhuni special is its high shrinkage rate during firing, which demands exceptional skill from the potter to keep the pot from cracking or warping.
Finish: The surface is smooth, with a natural rosy-red tone; the longer the pot is used and seasoned, the more it develops a glossy, jade-like patina.
Performance: Excellent heat retention that brings out the full, refined fragrance of aromatic teas such as Tie Guan Yin, oolong or premium green tea.
Every line of this Bình Cái Đức Chung teapot is testament to the experience and dedication of Master Artisan Wang Hongwei.
Lid fit: Absolutely flawless, so no heat or tea aroma escapes.
Balance: The weight is distributed evenly from handle to spout, making pouring light and fluid without tiring the hand.
Personal mark: The base of the pot and the inner face of the handle carry the artisan's own seal, guaranteeing a work of art with high collector value.
Tea lovers' greatest fear is a spout that clogs while pouring. The honeycomb filter design, with dozens of tiny holes drilled painstakingly by hand:
Ensures the stream pours strong, round and cuts off cleanly without splashing.
Holds back every last fine tea particle, giving a cup that is crystal clear and pure.
