Package contents - Yixing clay teapot x 1 - Paper certificate x 1 - Gift box x 1 Key features and materials - Handmade by artist Hao Tongtong — individually crafted and finished. - Rare style Yixing teapot with built-in filter for clean, controlled pouring. - Made from genuine Zisha (Yixing) clay; produced by high-temperature firing. - Lead- and cadmium-free material; clay contains a higher level of natural minerals and trace elements typical of Yixing mud. Why this teapot matters - Purpose-built for steeping loose-leaf teas: the built-in filter keeps leaves out of the cup while allowing full infusion. - Zisha clay’s natural porosity and mineral content make this teapot well suited for repeated use with a variety of teas. - Durable high-temperature production improves heat retention and long-term stability without chemical contaminants. Compatibility and performance - Suitable for black tea, Pu-er, Oolong, green tea, rose tea, flower tea, and similar loose-leaf preparations. - Designed for small- to medium-volume brewing sessions where control of infusion and aroma is important. - Reliable pouring and filtration make it compatible with Gongfu-style brewing as well as everyday teacup serving. Practical use scenarios - Morning single-serve brewing: prepare a focused session of Oolong or Pu-er to extract layered flavors using the built-in filter for a clean pour. - Tea gifting: arrives ready in a gift box with a paper certificate — a complete presentation for a tea enthusiast or collector. - Small-group tasting: use for multiple short steeps of black or green teas during a home tasting, benefiting from consistent heat retention and filtering.
