Know before you buy
The unglazed ceramic interior is porous, allowing it to absorb the essential oils and flavors of the tea over time. This process helps to season the pot, which can mellow the taste and enhance the depth of your brews with repeated use.
While the set is beautiful enough for display, it is fully functional and designed specifically for Gongfu style brewing. However, because it is handcrafted and wood-fired, it requires gentle handling and hand washing to maintain its integrity.
This set is not dishwasher safe. You should rinse the pieces with warm water after each use and allow them to air dry completely; avoid using harsh soaps or detergents, as these can be absorbed by the unglazed interior and affect the flavor of future teas.
Because the unglazed interior absorbs tea flavors, it is best to dedicate this set to one specific type of tea, such as Oolong or Pu-erh. Using it for many different varieties may lead to flavor crossover.
Wood-firing is a traditional technique where the kiln is fueled by wood rather than gas or electricity. This creates natural variations in the glaze and temperature, resulting in a unique, artisanal finish that cannot be replicated by modern mass-production methods.
