《湘妃竹段》Xiang Fei Zhu Duan,
Crafted by L4 Assoc Master Yu Chun Lei 俞春雷。
Yu Chun Lei specialises in Bamboo Sections and here presents his latest 湘妃竹段 "Xiang Fei Zhu Duan".
湘妃竹 Xiang Fei Zhu is a type of Bamboo significant in our Chinese culture, stemming from its growth in several provinces Hunan 湖南, Henan 河南 and Zhejiang 浙江。 It is known for its characteristic and natural circular patterns and is popularised in ornamental works.

Assoc Master Yu created this design and aced it, brilliantly!
The Xiang Fei Zhu Duan!
《湘妃竹段》
As an Expert in the Zhu Duan, he ups the ante by crafting a svelte and ever-so-slightly slim body with the beautifully concaved walls. Two tastefully feature lines, straight and neat, are carved near the top and likewise at the bottom. Assoc Master Yu rounds out the bottom with a purposeful round foot 明足. Small details, but he says all these needed to imbue this design with a subtly raised yet hugely elegant and stately air. A top delight to use!

Master Yu also crafted in the Qian Gai interface confidently

The beautifully crafted Ornate lid knob functions excellently as one grips easily with robust grip!

Assoc Master Yu's great work deserves a close look and our admiration,

He carries on his stellar skills to both the spout and handle.
The eyes are guided easily to how the handle sprouts confidently from the rear upper end,

and confidently kinks organically downwards, and then executes the sweep and bifurcation, with the end closer to the Tea Master (right-handed) flourishing flamboyantly with much detailing across the wall. Extremely detailed work. Three cheers to Master Yu!

Every part, carefully worked and detailed,

Assoc Master exerts his immense skills into the front spout, exhibiting immense presence being the centre of attention of the guests during the pour,

Congratulations to the fortunate Tea Master owner of this stellar work by Assoc Master Yu! He thanks you for appreciating his hard work and dedication to the cause. Once purchased, unique 5rmb cash note will be allocated and written in to secure and authenticate your purchase with RealZiSha and Assoc Master Yu Chun Lei。

Also to be cherished and witnessed in this ZiSha Work, you : besides the usual important, critical and beautiful hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade ZiSha pot, this pot has the discontinuous and roughly horizontal marks evident on the inner walls, and these are called the: 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen, which are the marks left on the clay slab, complementary to the marks on the workbench of the Craftsman Zhang Huan; During the making of FHM ZiSha pots, the Craftsladies and Craftsmen will be using tools to cut the clay slabs, etc, and these cutting strokes will leave marks on the studio workbench. Especially the first major forceful cut across the table to delineate the clay she/he wants to utilize to form the main body of the body. Thus when the craftsman subsequently pound the clay slab on the workbench, these marks will be etched onto the clay slab. Thus you are "enjoying" the additional natural hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade pot. Even a partially handmade pot will not show these marks. And those fake, those Jigger-machined pots may show CONCENTRIC continuous circular lines, usually all parallel to one another, and extremely uniform.

Take note that these Ni Deng Wen lines are CONVEX AND PROTRUDING OUTWARDS from the flat clay slab wall, not marked inwards. They protrude *out* due to them being complementary to the worn and cut *in* lines on the wooden bench the Craftsman is working on.

Therefore, do cherish and have fun admiring the discontinuous, roughly horizontal lines on your pot's inner walls, are called, the 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen "Workbench Lines/Marks"

Great Quality

179ml Le Rong is exactly as described and arrived in less than 2 weeks. The custom box it came in has very thick padding and was wrapped in heavy bubble wrap. It’s very high quality craftsmanship with great attention to detail. I like the simplicity and the size as it’s big enough for multiple people but not too big for 1.

Simply amazing!

This is my second teapot from realzisha.com and again they have done a great job! Both the teapot and their customer service are top of the top! If you are searching for a zisha teapot, do not give it a second thought: reazisha.com is the place to find it!

Beautiful little pot

Beautiful little pot with a perfect pour and the perfect size! Incredible quality and craftsmanship! Very quick shipping and so happy for my first zisha pot! Many thanks!

Fast delivery, high quality box and safe shipment! Fantastic product!

gorgeous pot, outstanding quality

This is my 3rd pot by master Zhang Ke. It's the second pot i received, the 3rd one is on commission and not ready yet, but looking very much forward to the finished result.
This overly large Di Cao Qing Zi Ni, JIan Liu De Zhong, is really superbly made. The walls are thin, even, the lid fits to a T, no leakage anywhere when pouring. For a large pot it's very easy to handle.
I also like the drawings on the side and top of the pot very much. I love the large volume. It's for when i am particularly thirsty :-) , but mostly for gatherings with family and friends.
I tried it with Phoenix, milan dan cong and to my surprise, it doesn't mute flowery flavors that much. It shaves a bit from the high notes of the tea, but not that much. The taste of the Dan Cong stays mostly intact.I like it very much! I think it will do also great with Jin Xuan oolong. Thank you so much master Zhang Ke , for such a masterpiece!
