Giới thiệu
Yixing teapots are handcrafted from the unique purple clay (zisha) found only near Yixing city. The unglazed, porous clay absorbs tea oils over years of use, building a patina that enhances flavor. Each pot should be dedicated to a single tea type to preserve its seasoned character. Authentic Yixing pots are prized collectors' items, with antique examples commanding extraordinary prices.
