Yixing Teapot, Fully Handcrafted in Golden Duanni Clay # 94328

This elegant Yixing teapot is entirely handmade from golden duanni (段泥), a rare and prized type of zisha clay known for its mineral richness and unique breathing qualities. The shape is a graceful variation of the “Pear Form” (梨形壶), with a soft, rounded body, gently tapered spout, and a subtly arched handle that balances the silhouette with quiet poise.

The lid is crowned with a hand-sculpted bud-shaped knob that reinforces the organic harmony of the piece. Its surface shows faint natural texture and hand-tool marks — signatures of an artisan’s touch rather than factory mold.

This teapot is not only functional, allowing for excellent heat retention and tea development, but also a work of tea artistry — refined yet alive with character. Ideal for oolongs and aged sheng puer, it is a piece to grow old with in daily gongfu practice.
