-160ml to suit our tea sessions for one to two persons.
1) This Fo Shou is an amazing pot for this amazing price. We take our hats off to Wu Peng. This pot is a Segmental-Corollary + Minimal Ornate Class Pot! The difficulty and time-consuming and care-intensive process involved in crafting this multi-segmental body from a single slab, is superbly crafted by Wu Peng.
2) The lid knob is stupendous testament to generous Wu Peng's skill and seriousness in providing Art and extreme value to all of us. Admire the lid knob. Not just the skill and aesthetics that we appreciate, it also provides ergonomics as well, with its corrugated/dotted texture, that allows supreme grip and tactility in handling and lifting the lid! The dotted-surface introduces air pockets between your finger and the possibly hot lid, as air acts as good heat insulation. Kudos to Wu Peng!
2) This pot is created and made with a 手推内球孔 Shou Tui Nei Qiu Kong, a.k.a. filter opening which is hand-pushed, inwards. This is totally different from those moulded ball filters which half-handmade pots come with. Shou Tui Nei Qiu Kong is a great feature of this Qie Duan which is diligently and carefully crafted in by hardworking Wu Peng.
Craftsman Wu Peng 吴鹏, is an expert Craftsman handling BenShan ZhuNi 本山朱泥, and not just that, he curates and handpicks his own BenShan ZhuNi clay from the miners. His own pedigree of high quality BenShan ZhuNi.
Here he joins us at RealZiSha, excitedly alongside Craftsman Zhao Xiao Wei 赵小卫。Importantly, Craftsman Wu Peng 吴鹏 crafts up the BenShan ZhuNi ZiSha works while Craftsman Zhao Xiao Wei 赵小卫 crafts up the XiaoMeiYao and ZhaoZhuang ZhuNi ZiSha works.
ZhuNi is:
1. of a pasty consistency, and,
2. of high shrinkage compared to ZiNi and DuanNi.
Due to these two factors, you will seldom see ZhuNi pots that have embellishments and ornamental sculpting gracing them.
HOWEVER, HERE Craftsman Wu Peng, breaks through, and is AMAZINGLY ABLE TO CRAFT and give us such Austere-minimal Ornate class pots AT SUCH GREAT LOW PRICES.
This is a BOON to ALL of us ZiSha collectors, users and patrons. Such a BOON! ZhuNi, boasting Ornate class quality, experience and craftsmanship, at stupendous lowest prices.
This low price is made possible because of his dexterity, skill, experience and knowledge of his BenShan ZhuNi clay, which he has been specially working on more than 10 years, since year 2012.
Craftsman Wu Peng lovingly and carefully coaxed the BenShan ZhuNi into these Works of Art on our tea tables. Thank you for your grandest support to these honest and dedicated Craftsladies and Craftsmen left to fend the Fully-Handmade ZiSha Art.

TRULY FULLY-HANDMADE AND DELICATELY MADE.
NOT those thick-/irregular-thickness-walled ones which are actually fake "Fully-handmade ZhuNi pots" utilising the cheating new technology: "车一刀 Che Yi Dao": Such ZhuNi pots utilising Che Yi Dao process, have been sprouting up in the market since early 2022. Che Yi Dao involves a swivelling-rotational cutter that goes around a roughly-finished ZhuNi pot to cut the outer surface into a perfect shape. This cutter obliviates the need of accomplished skill of a true Fully-Handmaking Craftsman. Obviously, Che Yi Dao also absolves the need of a skilled FHM Craftsman to 1)pound the slab into a careful thin-slab, 2)paddle-pat the slab into a uniform shape purely manually.
In the utilisation of Che Yi Dao cutter, the worker will just need to 1) roughly pound the slab into a slightly thicker slab. After that the worker rounds up this slab as part of the main body, and will just 2)need to ROUGHLY paddle-pat it into shape. After which he sets up the Che Yi Dao cutter to revolve and cut the body into a perfect shape.

Again.. I’m so overwhelmed by the skill of the artisan. Lid fits tight, pour is strong and broad and fast. The clay is fantastic. It softens, but keeps the fresh notes of the tea. I own quite some Yixing by now, none of them master the skill or the effects of the clay as good as the 4 pots I bought here. Packaging is second to none. You can buy with full confidence. I can only recommend.
sorry, i put up the wrong photo with this review and i can't seem to delete it. The photo elongs to another great pot i bought from them, the Hong Jiang po ni. sorry about that.
i really love the xisha form. It's one of my favourites. The pour is fast and full and doesn't get clogged by tea leaves. The form is evenly round, the bottom is sooo beautiful made. The lid fits perfectly and the sending ( to the Netherlands) was very fast and very good packaged against handled wildly by post.
I tried Tie Guan Yin in it and it made the teasoup round, full without dulling the high notes too much. I love this clay! I have 2 more pots coming in today from Realzisha. I think that gives away how much i like and trust this company.
i received the pot yesterday and after opening te pot for use, i tried Tie Gyan Yin oolong in it. It transformed the tea beautifully, in a soft , full and round teasoup. The lid fits excellent and no spilling! The pour is full and fast. The pot is so beautifully made i am sooo very happy with it. I can only recommend whole heartilly this company and its artisans. Friendly, honest, using very good clay, very good packaging and fast sending. Buy with confidence. ( i bought 4 pots already of them ;-) ).
Such a beautiful teapot!
Shipping ist extremely fast and the customer service ist amazing.
Can't recommend this shop enough.
