Ribbed Smiling Cherry Yixing Teapot

The Horizon Collection showcases the vibrant beauty of premium Zhuni (朱泥) clay, with its smooth texture, bright red color, and timeless shapes complemented by innovative decorations. It’s designed to captivate and bring excitement to any tea lover.

This Ribbed Smiling Cherry (筋纹笑樱) teapot, crafted from Da Hong Pao clay, the finest of all Zhuni clays, is a classic design within the Yixing teapot tradition, dating back to the Ming Dynasty. Its name reflects its distinctive form: the body tapers gracefully from top to bottom into a flat, rounded shape with a ring foot. The upward-curving spout and handle lend the teapot a delightful appearance, resembling a gentle smile when viewed in profile.
