Egg-Yolk Sword Pear Teapot ca. 80ml

It's a wonderful teapot, perfectly crafted, and pours very well and quickly. I love it. Shipping was very fast, and the delicate item was, as always, very well and securely packaged. I like this gallery with its beautiful and unusual tea pots and ceramics. I will order from there again.

Chaozhou teapots

Chaozhou is renowned for its fine, unglazed teapots made from local clay, deeply tied to the region’s Gongfu tea tradition. These teapots, often small and meticulously crafted, are prized for their ability to enhance tea flavors through gradual seasoning. The clay, rich in iron, retains heat exceptionally well, making it ideal for brewing aromatic oolong teas. With a history spanning centuries, Chaozhou teapots are cherished for their elegant simplicity, functional precision, and their role in the refined art of tea preparation.
