Angel's Comment:
It has fine texture, unique shape of lid and good wishes.
At first sight of this pot, we were attracted by its unique shape. It is created by the teapot maker. The lid is like a gentleman hat, which is very convenient to handle and has good air tightness.
The teapot body is engraved with the four words "室雅人和 (Shiya Renhe)", "Shiya" means warm, cozy, and elegant home; "Renhe" represents the harmony of the families. Therefore, whether it is for personal use or as a gift, it can represent a wish for a better life.
The shape of the lid is unique, like a gentleman hat, which is easy to hold and place, and no need to worry about falling.
Pouring smoothly and stopping neatly
