Inspired by the soft, full beauty of the legendary Xishi – one of the most classic and best-loved teapot shapes.
A rounded body, a finely turned reverse handle and a lid knob like a pearl give it a feminine yet perfectly balanced look.
A special highlight: a lotus motif carved in fine detail on the body, a symbol of nobility, purity and serenity.
One of the rare and costly red clays among the zisha family.
Marked by a vivid, warm red tone and a firm, fine surface like tangerine skin.
Properties: high vitrification, excellent heat retention and the ability to awaken the rich fragrance of tea at once.
A large size, suited to tea sessions for 4 to 6 people (group brewing).
Fits an afternoon tea at home or receiving guests at the office.
Nine filter holes, evenly and precisely made inside the spout.
They keep the pour strong, round and smooth, without clogging on tea leaves.
They ensure the tea poured into the cup is always clear and free of debris.
Grip: the reverse handle of the Xishi shape sits comfortably in the hand, so the tea pours gently and securely.
Fit: the lid is made by hand to a very close fit, holding in the full fragrance and heat of the tea.
Seasoning: the longer Da Hong Pao clay is used and the more carefully it is tended, the glossier the pot becomes and the deeper and more beautiful its red tone.
Thanks to the high heat retention of Da Hong Pao clay, the pot is an excellent match for oolong tea, red tea, pu-erh tea and aged teas.
It brings out the lingering sweetness and the distinctive aroma of strongly fragrant teas.
