Ming Lu 明炉 is the Austere shape and model which all ZiSha collectors love for its extreme practicality!

Ming Lu first of all, 1)exudes the Aura of Chinese Orientalism, secondly 2)has a wide opening for extreme EASE of introducing tea leaves and washing after steeping, 3)has a sharp-ish spout for decisive cutting of flow, and 4)has a slightly raised lid that stores a column of air above the tea water level when the lid is closed, so that during the initial first moment of pour with that few degrees of tilt, tea water flows out decisively and easily right from the start. 5) It also has a raised circular base with the protruding circular foot so that it is easier for you to lower your hand and introduce your index finger into the handle without your middle finger knuckle hitting the tea table. This raised foot also makes the pot seems larger than its volume suggests, giving a bigger presence on your 禅意十足 Zen tea table.

Crafted at ~170-180ml to cater for our tea friends who want a smallish 170-180ml pot suitable for two persons.

This Ming Lu is newly crafted at ~180ml with Lao Zi Ni by Craftsman Jiang Bin. Enjoy this superb, classic handwork and steep tea, rejoice in his work accompanying you on your journey! Thank you Friends!

Simply perfect

Smooth like silk, glitters like gold

This is such a sweet little teapot. As soon as I saw it, I knew it had to be mine. The order was sent to me on July 8th from their office in Singapore and it arrived today, on the 22nd. I have to thank the people at Real Zisha for their amazing service. I was able to track the order at any time I needed, and the teapot came very safely packed. I was really afraid it might break, travelling half the planet, but the guys here really know what they are doing. As for the pot itself, I think my mother said it best when she saw it: "Never in my entire life have I seen something like this." After I unpacked it, we just stayed there in silence, I have no words to describe how beautiful this teapot is, how precious it is to hold. If Craftsmen Zhai Yi Yao and Yi Hu Bi happen to read this review, I want to give them my eternal gratitude. Their work has given my tea journey an entirely new meaning. Thank you! :)
