Experience the elegance and tradition of Chaozhou tea culture with this handcrafted Zhuni Shi Piao teapot. Made from Zhuni clay, a fine, high-iron red clay from Chaozhou, Guangdong Province, this teapot offers exceptional heat retention, smooth texture, and the ability to develop a rich patina (the natural “aging” of a teapot that looks beautiful and improves the tea experience) over time, enhancing the flavor and aroma of your teas with every use.
Crafted using the traditional hand-pulled technique, this teapot showcases the precision and skill of Chaozhou artisans. Each step—from shaping to trimming to firing—ensures a compact, elegant, and balanced form. Unlike other clays, Zhuni’s high density and low porosity allows for a controlled infusion, preserving delicate oolong flavors and bringing out the floral and complex notes of teas like Phoenix Dancong or Wuyi Yancha.
This teapot features the classic Shi Piao shape, with a gently rounded, half-sized body that allows tea leaves to unfurl fully, a straight spout for smooth, precise pouring. Its compact 80ml size is perfect for solo tea sessions or for savoring smaller amounts of your finest teas, while its design retains heat efficiently to ensure consistent, flavorful brews.
Whether you are exploring Gongfu tea rituals or enjoying a quiet, personal session, this Zhuni Chaozhou Shi Piao Teapot blends functional excellence, traditional craftsmanship, and aesthetic beauty, making it a treasured piece for any tea enthusiast’s collection.
