The teapot features an internal filter hole design for exceptionally smooth water outflow. It is suitable for daily brewing of oolong, pu-erh and other types of tea. A quality teapot is able to fully release the natural aroma of tea leaves.
About Zhuni Clay
Zhuni is an exceptionally precious type of Yixing Zisha clay, mined from Xiaomei Kiln in Yixing. As shown in the product images, Zhuni clay has a subtly uneven surface. With long-term and regular use, it will gradually turn warm, mellow and lustrous. This is attributed to the unique physical structure of teapots made from Zhuni. During the tea brewing process, the teapot absorbs a small amount of tea liquor, and a thin protective layer will form on the surface of the teapot with extended use, which helps maintain the color and rich flavor of the tea leaves.
In addition, Zhuni is one of the most difficult pottery clays to fire. It is highly prone to cracking during the firing process, and only seasoned master craftsmen with rich experience can precisely control the firing temperature to ensure the quality of the finished products.

The Symbolism of the Lotus
The lotus is an auspicious symbol in traditional Chinese culture, representing elegance, purity and nobility. This elegance is not only visual, but also embodies inner purity and calmness.

We hope that when you brew tea with this lotus-shaped Zisha teapot, it can calm your inner anxiety and distracting thoughts, allowing you to focus on the authentic taste of the tea and the pleasure of the brewing process.
