Know before you buy
Mutton Fat Jade Porcelain is a high-quality ceramic known for its smooth, dense texture and warm, translucent appearance that resembles jade. Unlike standard porcelain, it is prized for its superior heat retention and a refined, matte finish that feels soft to the touch.
Because the material is non-porous, it does not absorb the oils or aromas of the tea you brew. This makes it an excellent neutral vessel for switching between different types of tea, such as Oolong, Pu-erh, or Black tea, without lingering flavors from previous sessions.
A 150ml capacity is ideal for gongfu-style brewing, which typically serves one to two people. It is designed for multiple short infusions rather than brewing a large pot to sit for an extended period.
The hydrophobic surface makes the teapot easy to clean; simply rinse it with warm water after each use. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents, as these can dull the matte finish over time.
While the porcelain provides excellent heat retention, the handle is designed to stay at a manageable temperature during standard brewing times. However, as with any ceramic teapot, use caution when handling it immediately after pouring boiling water.
