"世事浮云何足问, 不如高卧且加餐。" In this endearing Poem Couplet, The First Stanza means, "Everything is unpredictable, just as the Clouds in the Sky, Rather than to Being Entrenched and Going Around in Circles Pondering the True Cause where there is no One Cause," The Second Stanza continues, "We Be Content with Living in the Moment and Achieving a Good Life with our Exertions."

The teapot is beautiful, excellently crafted and the characters carved are crisp and bolt. I use it for sheng puerh, where the clay works great. I love it.
This is my first zisha teapot, but I've found that you don't need much experience to see the obvious attention to detail and meticulous fine tuning of this teapot. No pictures do it justice, it is so much different actually holding one than it is looking at a picture. It is even better in person, I can feel the cool clay and taste the dark notes it adds to my sheng pu'er tea. It's really hard to explain it, even with pictures attached, but it's just amazing. Even the packaging was perfect and very sturdy. Blown away. I hopefully will buy more teapots in the future from RealZisha. Highly recommend.
My First Jiangponi Teapot and Second Fully Handmade Yixing
This Ming Shi Gong Deng is new to me in both form and substance. It is both tall and wide, lending it to versatility in the style of tea brewed, and has a short, wide spout for quick pouring. I used it to brew Dahongpao Yancha, which the Hongni Jiangponi clay expressed beautifully. In a way more pronounced than Zhuni zisha or Chaozhou zitao, this clay filters out strong roasts and reveals the flavors underneath.
Once again the crew and artists of realzisha delivers excellence on all levels. This teapot is an amazing brewing vessel and beautiful to look at. Thank you once again.
