Muse Yixing Teapot

Sale price$255.00

clay:
size:

Our signature Twilight Collection has been a longtime fan favorite, showcasing teapots crafted from decades-aged Wuni (古乌泥), a subcategory of Zini clay from Huanglong Mountain. Fired in a specialized kiln at over 1,200°C, these teapots feature a smooth, deep red luster and a mesmerizing iridescent sheen. The finely textured clay develops a natural patina over time, adding to its timeless appeal.

This Muse (儒方) teapot has a tall square body with gently ribbed corners. The flat lid fits neatly with a stepped rim. The long and thin spout curves outward with a slight taper, while the long handle offers an elegant grip. Its overall form reflects a quiet refinement and scholarly grace.

The decoration is a hand-painted bird-and-flower motif. The paradise flycatcher, a symbol of longevity, wealth, and a successful career, is shown in play among flourishing flowers, implying good wishes.

Exquisite Zisha Clay Painting

Zisha clay painting is a traditional Yixing teapot decoration method that became popular in the late 17th century during the Qing Dynasty. The technique involves applying a fine clay slurry, either in the same clay as the teapot body or in contrasting colors, onto the semi-dry surface of a finished teapot. Artists use brushes to paint motifs such as landscapes, flowers, birds, and calligraphy. After firing, the painted designs appear slightly raised, resembling shallow relief.
