$198.00

The Ultimate Functional Teapot
Discover the unparalleled utility of the "Hanwa" (Han Dynasty Tile) silhouette. Revered by Yixing collectors with the proverb, "A thousand teapots cannot compare to one Hanwa," this design is engineered purely for the practical tea brewer. The straight, cylindrical body and exceptionally wide mouth make loading large, whole-leaf teas (like Oolong or White tea) completely effortless, while also allowing for incredibly easy cleaning after your session.

Aged Zini & Extreme Porosity
Handcrafted by artisan Zhu Qianyun, this teapot is forged from family-reserved, highly aged Zini (Purple Clay). This specific ore is characterized by its high iron content and a profound dual-pore structure. This ensures maximum breathability, softening the water without ever smothering the tea leaves. Because of its rich oil content and porosity, this specific clay is famous among collectors for developing a brilliant, luminous patina incredibly fast—often visibly changing after just a few brewing sessions.

Heritage Material: Crafted from long-aged, family-reserved Yixing Zini clay, known for its rich texture and rapid patina development.
Hanwa Architecture: Features an ultra-wide mouth, a traditional bridge-shaped lid knob, and a straight cannon-barrel spout for a fast, powerful pour.
Master Craftsmanship: Fully handmade by artisan Zhu Qianyun.
Precise Solo Scale: Teapot Total Length 13.5 cm (5.3"), Mouth Diameter 7.6 cm (3.0"), Height 5 cm (2.0"). Capacity ~150 ml (5.1 oz).
