Know before you buy
Wood-fired ceramics often have a slightly porous surface compared to glazed porcelain, which can subtly round out the edges of a tea's profile over time. However, because this teapot features a distinct glaze, the impact on flavor is minimal, making it a versatile choice for various tea types.
Yes, 145ml is an ideal size for solo gongfu sessions. It allows you to brew enough tea to fill a standard tasting cup multiple times without needing to manage a large volume of water.
The lid is designed to be held in place with your index finger while you pour. This is a common feature in traditional artisanal teapots and helps you maintain control over the pour angle and flow.
Because this teapot is wood-fired, the glaze reacts uniquely to the kiln environment. While the overall aesthetic will match the description, expect slight variations in color distribution and texture that make each piece one-of-a-kind.
The teapot is straightforward to maintain. Simply rinse it with warm water after each use and allow it to air dry completely with the lid off to prevent any moisture buildup inside.
