Angel's Comment:
This teapot, with smooth lines and unique shape, is very comfortable to use.
The creative inspiration of Qu Hu comes from snails. The lines of the spout, the body, and the handle are naturally transitioned and integrated. Its unique shape is loved by many Zisha lovers.
TeaVivre’s Zi Ni Qu Hu has warm clay color, simple and elegant shape. The contour lines are very natural and harmonious, very comfortable to use, and the pouring is powerful and smooth. The finial on the lid is conical shape which is not only convenient to handle, but also can better echo the shape of the body, fully demonstrating its artistic beauty.
Material – Zi Ni (紫泥)
Zi Ni is a classic and widely recognized Zisha clay on the market, refined from Zisha ore dug out of the mine of Huanglong, Yixing. This clay has a stable, mature color, a high iron content, and good breathability and structure. Along with this, it barely contracts when fired and molds easily, marking it as a good choice for large crafts and also the first choice of clay for many Zisha makers. Teapots made out of Zi Ni can easily maintain a lustrous shine, and are generally preferred for brewing light-roasted oolong or pu-erh teas.
Origin
Yixing County is known as the Pottery Capital of China for its extensive 6500-year history of the craft. The area boasts abundant resources of argil, tea, bamboo, and charcoal, each of which contributes an important base material for the making of pottery. Yixing Zisha products have earned countless prizes both at home in China as well as abroad, with a few exceptional works presented as national gifts during international diplomacy.
