Good company and a preferred tea on hand, what more could be missing? Of course teapots like this one. The Dao Ba Xi Shi tea pot is a perfect tool to enjoy that lazy afternoon while sipping tea together with loved ones or friends.

 

 

 

A Yixing purple clay tea pot like this encourages one’s tea to release its full potential. An improved aroma, a better taste and a more enjoyable cup, all can be appreciated with this pot in hand.

 

A teapot like this is considered high-class by most tea enthusiasts. The reputation is highly attributed to the pot’s porous nature, that even if fired and heated for many times, still the pores remain.

 

This characteristic is brilliant for absorbing the flavor and aroma of the tea. If used more often, the pot develops a glossy interior which is even more useful in boosting the overall effect of the tea-taste, color and scent.

So pot after pot of tea brings out the best in each brew. Thanks to the

retaining property of the material, each brew is heightened and mixed with the previous concoctions to provide for a superb taste. There is no need to finish all that 200 milliliters of tea in a rush, though. The tea will stay pure, fresh and warm for a long time inside this pot compared to other tea pots which gives tea a bad taste especially with the heat of the summer.

 

 

The exterior of the pot also becomes shiny and smoother in less than a month from absorbing oils form the hands of tea drinkers. A more lustrous appearance shines through then which emphasizes the artistic sketches of the pot.

 

Aside from the tea brewing excellence this pot offers, the well-crafted, handmade pot is also noticed for its artistic worth. The design of the pot depicts a typical scenario in Chinese geography. A traditional building/temple landscaped beautifully with the Chinese mountains and skies as backgrounds, one must be blind not to see its worth. Truly, a work of art and a masterpiece coming from the great artist Zhou Xiao Ming who always wins in various competitions that involve paintings and sculpting.

 

With its quaint, little appearance and rich design, this piece serves as a perfect gift to friends and a great item at home, especially in the living room.

The artistic side of this pot can be attributed by its unique invented ear-like (Dao Ba) handle. The structure itself is unique. The designer was also inspired by the beauty and goodness of Xi Shi (one of the four beauties representing ancient China), inside and out, hence, the origin for the name Dao Ba Xi Shi teapot.

 

 

Due to the persistence of the mining industry for a long time in Yixing, China, the porous clay is fast approaching inexistence. With the demand for wares made from this clay, the demand grows bigger while still the production goes slower.

 

However, rest assured that one pot from the very person who designs this piece of art is of good quality. Months of waiting for that pot to be delivered at the doorstep is worth the wait and after opening that box, one will see how the master designer made the handle, button and spout in a straight line for that wonderful flow of tea.

 

Enjoy sipping that tea in Yixing purple clay teapot like this and be enamored with the rich taste it provides.
