Know before you buy
Wild clay from Taiwan's northern mountains is porous and mineral-rich, which can help soften the water and enhance the flavor profile of your tea. Over time, the clay absorbs the oils of the tea you brew, creating a seasoned vessel that improves with consistent use.
No, this teapot is designed without a filter. The spout is engineered for a steady, controlled pour that naturally keeps tea leaves inside the pot, provided you are using whole-leaf teas.
Yes, this capacity is specifically designed for gongfu-style brewing, which focuses on small, concentrated infusions. It is ideal for a single user or for sharing a few small cups with one other person.
Rinse the teapot with hot water only; avoid using soap or detergents, as the porous clay will absorb the scent and chemicals. After use, rinse it thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely with the lid off to prevent any residual moisture.
Because each piece is handcrafted in small batches from natural wild clay, every teapot features unique mineral patterns and color variations. You should expect your specific teapot to have its own distinct aesthetic rather than being an exact replica of the photos.
The gallery lid is precision-fitted to sit securely within the rim of the teapot. This design helps maintain a consistent temperature during steeping and prevents drips from running down the side of the pot while you pour.
