Congratulations to an esteemed collector from North Wales.
This is sold to him on the 26th March 2022.
I was delighted when I received this pot from Jeff and Ian of REALZISHA.COM! It was beautifully packed and arrived safely all the way from Singapore to the UK in a matter of days.
The pot, called Fāng Yù, is everything I was hoping it would be. It is a work by the Level 2A master, Lù Xué Fēng, the clay is qīng duàn (a lovely olive green duànní that has attractive yellow speckles all over it), and the capacity is 330 ml. From a functional point of view, the pot is a pleasure to use: it pours beautifully and the lid fits absolutely perfectly. The handle is also very comfortable to hold. Having said that, all of these things are only to be expected from such a consummate master. What really stood out to me the instant I saw the pot, however, was how it looked aesthetically. In my opinion, it has perfect balance and proportion, and there is a certain archaic nobility to its form. It is this that raises the pot above mere function. For me, this is a work of great artistic design.
It is entirely thanks to Ian and Jeff that such works by Master Lù and others are made available to people in the west. Not only do they offer direct access to recognised, accredited artists, they also offer unlimited knowledge and guidance which they provide with great kindness and generosity. I have complete trust in REALZISHA.COM and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone interested in this art form.

this teapot is fabulous. very well crafted and the large opening makes it super easy to load and clean. the size is just right, not too big not too small. I am very happy with this pot and would buy again.
I’ve just received my ZiSha teapot from RealZiSha, and it’s absolutely amazing! Coming from Vietnamese tea culture, I know this pot will elevate my tea experience. The craftsmanship is beautiful, well-balanced, and feels perfect in hand.
A huge thank you to Ian, Yi-Lei, and the RealZiSha team for this incredible piece, and a special thanks to Chen Hua Jun, the talented craftsman behind this beautiful teapot. Your dedication to authentic artistry truly shines through. I can't wait to see how it enhances the flavour of my tea over time.
This is my first fully handmade zisha pot and I am exceptionally happy with my purchase. The craftsmanship is something to savour and the shrinkage lines running down the sides of the spot look particularly pleasing on this pot shape. Brews tea very well, particularly fragrant oolong varieties and young sheng. Very proud to own this pot.
I absolutely love my new teapot! The craftsmanship is stunning, every detail reflects the care and skill that went into making it. It’s a joy to hold and pour from. This teapot has made my gongfu sessions feel even more special. Highly recommend to any tea lover looking for an authentic, handmade piece.
