Mold-assisted・Zi ni (purple clay)・220ml
One of three Xi Shi tea pots we commissioned in 2016 as a study of clay types. The assistance of a mold allows us to offer an exceptionally high quality tea pot using an authentic zisha clay without the cost of full hand craftsmanship.
Perfectly shaped to accommodate a range of different tea types. Nine outlets arranged in a diamond pattern allow for quick drainage. Series of thirty pieces.
Usage and care: Thoroughly rinse particles of sand from the interior before use. Dedicate one tea type per pot. Eventually, a tea pot will be seasoned with the particular character of a tea. Hand-wash only without soap or detergent.
Dimensions: 75mm tall, 80mm diameter・Pot Name: 西施壺・Artist: 黃亞萍
