Craftsman Chen Fa Chu knocked it out of the park with this one. I simply adore this little teapot. Before and after drinking tea I find myself just gazing at it and wondering how a person could craft such a pristine vessel. I consider myself very fortunate to grab this teapot. Could not recommend craftsman Chen Fa Chu’s work more.
Not only did I receive the kindest and attentive support when the Teapot's delivery was delayed, when the Teapot diligently arrived I was shocked at how immaculate the quality of its craftsmanship was. The fine teaware sold on RealZisha truly is a league of its own, I have never known such beautiful handmade ceramics of this caliber before and nothing would compare to seeing it in person. The design of the "Yun Lu - Heavenly Cauldron" is so touching and expressive in its swooping curves and gentle shape, I am so moved to say it might be my favorite teapot I've ever had the opportunity to possess. Truly a treasure.
The teapot arrived much earlier than I expected. It looked clearly handmade. The lid had a very tight fit: when I held the hole on top closed with my finger, no tea would come out. I love my teapot and use it every day--thank you!
Craftsmanship and materials are both top notch. Using it daily for 30 days now; weight, pouring, heat retention are all great.
I love making Fuzhuan and Shu Puerh in this masterpiece every day. It retains heats very well and compliments these styles of tea brilliantly. It's a work of art.
Insane smooth pour, amazingly round and soft. Coincidentally arrived during a half moon. Amazing
the shape of the bottom rim is great
I’m extremely satisfied with this teapot. It’s an excellent size for brewing sheng pu’er, and the craftsmanship is beautiful. Many thanks to craftsman Gu Xiao Ming for his excellent work. I highly recommend Real Zisha to any tea enthusiast looking for a quality teapot. Thank you!
I feel so blessed and honored to own a teapot from this master. She knew my vision and created exactly what I wanted. It is beyond exquisite and it will never fail to put me in awe.
Truly special ore. Look up eggplant zini famed in the Qing dynasty. Felt slightly Sandy at first (in an unadulterated clay positive manner) but after the first few sessions the teapot is becoming more smooth and vibrant. So grateful for your craft cultural preservation!
I can't get enough of this beautiful piece: the color, the shape, the warmth while leaves are infusing, the resulting tea taste (mostly ripe Pu-erh for this one)... The best purchase I ever did, probably; I'll cherise this all my life, thank you for your work.
Excellent pot all around. Beautiful craftsmanship, nice clay. Piece of art.
She is so cute, and an amazing little teapot! Very well made and an absolute pleasure to use. If I am to get another zisha pot it would definitely be from here.
The entire process was smooth and wonderful! Everyone I spoke to was very nice and helpful. My pot also came out beautifully and I couldn’t be happier!
Beautiful piece of work ,,, such nice attention to detail ... pours nice ... feels nice . Thankyou !!!
This is such a beautiful pot. The carving and craftsmanship is stunning. The attention to detail and the clay quality is clear. 🙇♂️
Beautiful craftsmanship.
Beautifully crafted Chu Piao with excellent balance, a precise lid fit, and a clean, fast pour. The Zhu Sha clay has a lovely texture and character, and the pot feels exceptionally refined in hand. A superb teapot and a pleasure to use.
More than just a work of art. One of the best experiences on earth is having some great tea in one of these pots. I drink Phoenix Dan cong mi lan xiang. I appreciate the work put in by everyone involved.
Great quality and craftsmanship
Highly recommend, this is truly some of the best quality and excellent artistan craftsmanship. Was very fast delivery and easy to order, would be happy to order again!
this is my 24th teapot from real zisha. i really went for the clay this time, because i read Qing hui Zi Ni was a favourite clay in past times. Of course the pot is again, outstanding. No leaking, perfect fit, beautiful skilled made and handles very well and love the larger volume. i can understand this clay was a favourite. I tries with some dan congs and some pu-ehrs. Een though it it a zini type clay, it doesn’t mute the high and delicate flavors, whilst is does mute astringency. I think this pot wil be becoming a favourite very soon. Thank you again for a wonderful teapot!
Excellent Ai Han Wa by Fan Xiao Zhi in Zhu Sha. Beautiful proportions, clean workmanship and a very pleasant clay texture. At 120.3 mL, it is ideal for gongfu and performs especially well with yancha, adding body and smoothness while preserving aroma and minerality. A beautiful and highly functional Yixing pot.
Well made. Holds heat well. Good pour. Nice feel. Makes excellent tea.
