Handmade Premium Yixing “Hanwa” Teapot

Yixing "Hanwa" Teapot (Approx. 170ml)

This Handmade Yixing Hanwa Teapot, crafted from premium Zisha clay from Yixing, Jiangsu Province is known for its mineral-rich, porous nature that gradually absorbs the natural oils of the teas you brew, enriching flavor, aroma, and mouthfeel over time. Its exceptional heat retention ensures that each infusion draws out the full character of your tea leaves, whether you are enjoying an aromatic oolong or a rich puerh.

The Hanwa (汉瓦) shape draws inspiration from the clean, grounded lines of Han dynasty roof tiles. It carries a calm, architectural presence — low, steady, and practical.

• Low, rounded body
  The slightly compressed profile keeps the center of gravity stable. It feels grounded in the hand and pours with control.
• Wide mouth opening
  This is one of its biggest functional advantages. The broader opening makes it much easier to:
  
• Load and remove larger twisted or strip-style leaves
• Accommodate long Wuyi yancha, Dancong, or large-leaf sheng puer
• Clean the interior thoroughly after sessions
• For teas that expand aggressively, this shape gives them proper space to open without crowding.
• Flat, well-seated lid
  The lid sits securely with a clean rim line. The flat top visually balances the rounded belly, giving it that classic “tile” reference.
• Straight spout with steady flow
  The spout is typically short and direct, allowing for a controlled, smooth pour — ideal for gongfu brewing where timing matters.

The Handmade Hanwa Teapot combines traditional craftsmanship, auspicious symbolism, functional elegance, and flavor-enhancing properties, to making each cup a refined and memorable experience.
