DuanNi
Moon Rabbit is a mystical figure from Chinese culture. If you look up during the full moon, you'll see him with a mortar, pounding elixir of life. This 200ml Yixing Teapot, shaped like a Dragon Egg, will make a lovely addition to your Gongfu tea set. Duan Ni Yixing clay (Zi Sha) has an excellent sand structure that softens bitterness and astringency, allowing your tea to shine.
This Yun Si Fang teapot blends the aesthetics of round and square forms with a delicate, elegant design. It's a masterful combination of symmetry and fluidity – where the roundness meets the structure of the square. This 100ml wood-fired teapot is made from DuanNi ZiSha from Ben Shan – the original Yixing clay mines. DuanNi clay has an excellent sand structure, which softens the harsh notes in tea by reducing bitterness and astringency.
Ce Ba (侧把) – side-handle teapot, is a reminder of the long conversation between Chinese and Japanese tea traditions. This 100ml wood-fired teapot is made from coarse-grained, aged Yixing DuanNi clay from Ben Shan – the original deposit, valued for its excellent sand structure, which softens the harsh notes in tea, helping the tea really show itself. The surface shows a warm, subdued sheen which will develop a fine patina over time.
