Because Kungfu teas usually require longer time of infusing compared with green tea, your teapot does a better and more efficient job than other types of teapots in brewing you a delicious cup of Oolong or Tie Guan Yin.
Any elements that may damage the taste of tea should be got rid of as a Kungfu tea ceremony requires. That’s when the Gong Dao or “fair” cup comes to play its role next.
The jug-style cup allows the tea ground to settle down and lets you serve clear and smooth rounded brew to your guests. Fair enough, indeed!
A Kungfu tea is not only about tasting, but also about smelling. Hints of tea aromas build up in the tiny pores of the cups and elevate the fragrance and enjoyment as you close your eyes and sniff the soothing smell of your tea.
Check out the unique designs that make your tea set truly a collectors’ delight!
Your teapot and Gong Dao cup are modeled after the raised dais the Chinese emperors used to ascend to pray to the heavenly god for longevity.
The amusing handle of your teapot is a dragon, while the spout is the head of a phoenix. Both creatures are a fine symbol of divine power.

If you are looking for a gift to an important Chinese client, this could be the perfect one. See the strange beast on the lid of the teapot?

A unique purple clay teapot is from Yixing, China and now it is only 193 US Dollars.
The very first tea set produced in the world originated from the very place where tea infusion was born. In the Yixing region of China (the only source of this unique material), purple clay, red clay or “zisha” was the main component in the aptly called Yixing tea sets. Pot making began to rise during the Sung Dynasty (960-1279) but it flourished even further during the reign of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
Dragon Totem Chinese Tea Set
However, before purple clay became a staple in tea pottery, tea was used to drink directly from drinking bowls after being brewed. The said clay was used in making jars, bowls and the like until it was later discovered as an ideal element in tea set making.
The Chinese tea set contains one tea pot and two teacups. The teapot can hold water up to 200 millimeters, equivalent to one drinking cup. On the other hand, the tea cups can accommodate 70 millimeters of water. The reason for the cups’ low water-holding capacity is to allow the drinkers to savor the hot brewed tea used in ceremonies and social gathering in ancient Chinese tradition.
The tea’s design is inspired by the ancient Chinese dragon cane. On the wares, the relief map of this antique cane was intricately pictured. The dragon symbolizes the masculine energy and fertility of an emperor and the emperor himself. In line with the tea session’s reputation as a form of a royalty event; the legendary creature encrypted in a king’s cane is the perfect design.
What are the distinct properties of this purple clay that it has captured the hearts of almost all tea potters in China and even influenced the porcelain-dominated tea ware in the West?
Apparently, the color of the clay commands immediate attraction and beauty. The double layering of the ware is designed effectively to not burn the delicate hand handling the set.The glazed outside part of the set enhances more the ware’s color. However, the inside is left uncoated so that the natural pores of the clay are not blocked and the flavor, aroma, smell and warmth of the tea being brewed remains.
Your tea set becomes seasoned as you use

Gradually, the teapots and cups become seasoned and the distinct flavor of the tea is absorbed for a long time. This unique property suggests that a set should be used for a certain type of tea so that there will be no mixing of the blends. Some of the teas that are best used with this set are black tea, flower tea, pu er tea, fruit tea, and so on.
The ingenuity of Chinese people and the help of Taiwanese technicians, the product is made to meet the above standards required by the European Union, American Food and drug Administration and the Switzerland SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance) which are three of the world’s most organized teams in product inspection.
Literally, the set means “to go as you wish” or “all wishes come true”. There is some truth behind it. From just being a local product, it has spread now to the rest of the world not in its primitive form but in a 280-by-180-by-120 box with a design that tells a story of culture, history and quality. The manufacturers get more than what they wished for.

The artist who made this pot took him/her months to complete. Skills and years of experience are two main ingredients to make this one. Each pot is hand made so even if the same potter makes another one of this kind, the result is a whole, new pot but with the same quality and beauty like this.
The artists use rare purple clay that can only be found in Yixing, China. Due to its functional marvel as a teapot, the clay has been mined and used for almost two millennia now. What is the result? Well, the result is an almost-exhausted source of clay. Historians say that once, the clay was limited for Imperial use only but it later became available for almost anyone.
So if an artist gets his/her hands on this clay, he/she does everything
to make it worthwhile, beautiful and functional. Only a master potter’s hands can transform a doughy material into a piece of art like this. Look and one will see closely that the handle, button and spout are aligned. Functionally, this makes pouring easier and drinking even better. No worries on the heat of the infusion though, it is contained by the dual covering of the pot. That is style and function all in one pot.
Who can not notice the wonderful hand painting of a flower and a butterfly on the belly of the pot? Depicting beauty ala nature at its very best captured in one unique teapot. In Chinese legends, a flower and a butterfly represent vitality, purity and beauty amidst the not-so enticing surroundings.

There really is no need to finish that concoction in one single cup. The tea is best enjoyed by sipping it slowly, savoring all the taste it has and wanting more knowing that the next one will be better.
The outside surfaces of the set look glazed, like they were coated with a
transparent film or something. However, the secret lies inside the pot and cups, the unglazed insides. The no-glaze technique of the clay has the advantage of sucking in the flavor and aroma of the tea and returns them into the next brewing.
For this reason, it is suggested to use one tea set for one particular type of tea so that no unnecessary mixing of flavors takes place.
With this superb property, the demand for Yixing purple clay tea set has increased over the years. Sad to say, the production weans due to its massive use for centuries by royalties and commoners alike to the point that that the reserves are very much diminished.
However, the scarcity of the material is not the only reason for its limited production. The handcrafting of this set takes one craftsman with enough experience and training to finish. The design may look so simple, but the carving and shaping are things that only highly-skilled hands can make.

Just take a look at that perfectly aligned handle, mouth and spout of the teapot. With a height of 6.3 centimeters, width of 12 centimeters and a pot diameter of 5 centimeters, one will surely see a smooth flowing tea into the three cups, all 150 milliliters of it. This creation is a solid example of what a good teapot is, giving comfort and function.
The cups also have their share of the story. The 3.5-centimeter height of the cup is suited well for its 5.6-centimeter mouth diameter for easy sipping. Surely, one cup is not enough and one will breezily reach for the pot to pour another 40 milliliters of liquid satisfaction.
Tie guan yin tea, pu er tea and black tea, known for their strong-tasting flavors are the perfect blends for this set. The overwhelming aroma is slightly offset by the shapes of the pot and cups to make sipping more enjoyable. No wonder this set is themed as “round and integrating”. The absolute design just assimilates all the goodness of the tea and brings them back in full blast.
Yixing’s artistic china tea set tradition started with a master potter named Gong Chun who lived over 500 years ago.
Before him, all teapots were plain shapes with no special designs crafted in the clay. Gong Chun was the servant of a monk who was a teapot expert but treated him meanly.
He secretly learned the monk’s techniques and one day, when the monk was out, he decided to make a Chinese tea set in the shape of tree knot on his own. Gong Chun was successful, and even he himself was surprised by the beautiful, irregular shape that was produced. Now you can see that very teapot at the Chinese Museum of History in Beijing, because it was the pot that inspired artisans to look to natural objects for their designs.
