Lightweight Polished Red/brown Jianshui Zitao Teapot - Dragon's Egg / Long Dan Style - 110ml In Multiple Colors [98Nx74Oe]

We only have 1 of these left. When it's gone, it's gone!

This is a true tea lovers teapot. This belongs to a special collection we commissioned in Jianshui to our exact specifications. Jianshui teapots are amazing to brew with. We believe the quality of the clay speaks for itself and had these custom teapots made to exhibit Jianshui clay at an affordable price. These are simple, efficient teapots made to be tea brewing workhorses. They are small in size and medium polished.

These are each handmade by a group of artists who work together. They are single fired and unglazed. This is a true clay which lacks any sand. The natural minerals in the clay will enhance the flavor of your tea. Jianshui is in Yunnan, and the clay used in these teapots comes from the same mountains that grow puerh tea trees. We appreciate that connection. We blogged about this unique town here.

Since these are handmade products each are unique. There are slight variations to each. Each teapot was hand tested by us before sale. The lids fit and they seal well. They pour fast and easy. They are ready to go!

This teapot is polished blended red Jianshui clay and is in the "Long Dan", or "Dragon's Egg" style. After polishing the red clay gains a rich brown appearance. We have a limited number of these to sell. They are in a few different sizes depending on your needs. They hold either 100, 110, or 120ml of water. Volume measurements are rounded to the nearest tenth number. Each may hold a few ml more or less. 

These are tiny teapots that will easily sit in a single hand. They measure on average 9cm from tip of spout to end of handle and are around 7cm tall.

A box and bag are included in the price!
