Angel's Comment:
Whether you're at work or on vacation, this Zisha tea set can satisfy your pleasure of brewing tea at anytime and anywhere
This travel tea set will allow you to enjoy the pleasure of brewing tea wherever you are, and in a compact, limited space too. This particular set is made from Yixing purple clay: it contains a classical Xi Shi pot with four teacups, a tea pitcher, and a stainless steel strainer.
The container is natural bamboo, used both as storage for the tea set as well as a tea tray for the session itself, with its concave design on the top. The right side has a built-in metal filter, convenient for pouring the leaves into; a drain hose is attached as well. The handle of the box is a retro-style bronze and copper carved lock, safe and secure.
Zi Ni: 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.
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.
