Yxhupot Teapot 10oz Red Brown Chinese Yixing Clay Pot Zisha Gongfu Tea

Yxhupot Teapot 10oz Red Brown Chinese Yixing Clay Pot Zisha Gongfu Tea

Yxhupot 10 oz (about 320 ml) red-brown qingshuini Yixing clay teapot, hand carved, with a rope linking the lid, a budget-priced step up in size from the old 5.4 oz pot.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Listing states natural red-brown qingshuini clay with hand-carved characters, in the traditional zisha style.
  • + About 320 ml and 268 g, sized for personal gongfu sessions rather than serving a crowd.
  • + A rope links pot and lid so the lid will not fall off, and gift wrap is included.

Trade-offs

  • - Larger than the old 5.4 oz pot, so it uses more leaf for a gongfu session.
  • - Priced as a budget pot from a small brand, and the listing does not name an artisan or give a certificate.
