Angel's Comment:
A classic hammered pattern Xi Shi silver teapot with exquisite craftsmanship, small and adorable.
Silver is a precious metal, and its application in medicine and health can be traced back to 5000 years ago. Silver has been widely used in medicine and health due to its unique biological effects. Chinese silverware culture has a long history. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, the ancients began to use silver to make utensils.
In recent years, more and more tea lovers have begun to use silver teapots to make tea, because silver pots of tea can improve the quality of tea to a certain extent, and make the tea taste better.
This silver teapot takes the shape of Xi Shi, classic and cute. The hammered texture on the surface is made by hand-beating with hammer by the teapot maker. After polishing, the whole teapot is shiny and very dazzling. No matter where it is placed, it is an extraordinary work of art.
The handle is made of wooden, which is easy to pour tea without being scalding.
The spout is short and straight, pouring smoothly and stopping neatly.
The inner wall is smooth and the hammered pattern by hand is clearly visible
