Know before you buy
Lao zi ni is a highly regarded Yixing clay known for its porous nature, which allows it to absorb the oils and flavors of the tea over time. This seasoning process enhances the depth and character of your brews the more you use the pot.
A 250ml capacity is ideal for solo tea sessions or serving two people. It is a standard size for Gongfu-style brewing, where you use a higher leaf-to-water ratio and perform multiple short infusions.
The 7-hole design acts as a built-in filter to prevent tea leaves from escaping into your cup. It is engineered to provide a steady, smooth flow, which is essential for maintaining the temperature and consistency of your tea.
Yes, because this teapot is fully handmade, each piece is unique. You may notice subtle variations in the bamboo leaf appliques or the finish, which are hallmarks of authentic craftsmanship rather than defects.
Rinse the teapot with hot water only; never use soap, as the porous clay will absorb the detergent and ruin the flavor of future teas. After each use, empty the leaves and allow the pot to air dry completely with the lid off.
