Calyx, Qing hui
Calyx, Qing hui
Hand-formed・Qinghui ni (gray clay)・230ml
This teapot was made using a Huang Long Shan "qinghui ni" or clear gray clay. Its Chinese name translates to mean "calyx", the part of the flower to which petals attach and from which they unfurl.
Artist chop is stamped on the bottom, underside of the lid, and the handle. Seven outlets arranged in a hexagonal pattern allow for quick drainage. Limited series of two 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: 68mm tall, 85mm diameter・Pot Name: 盂式壺・Artist: 饒青
