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.
