The Dayi "Yuan Zhong" or Round Clock teapot is a work of functional art, its design inspired by the harmonious circular form of a traditional Chinese clock. This 160ml teapot is meticulously crafted from the finest Zi Ni clay, known for its deep purple mud color and its ability to mature with use, enhancing the tea's flavor profile with each brewing session.
The "Yuan Zhong" design is a blend of traditional aesthetics and practicality, with a focus on the tea pouring experience. It features 7 wide water flowing holes and a straight, wide pouring spout, ensuring a fast and precise pour. This thoughtful design minimizes any potential for dripping and allows for a clean and elegant tea service.
Handling this teapot is a delight; its round shape and balanced weight make it easy to hold and pour, even with one hand. The lid fits securely, which helps to retain heat and the full bouquet of the tea’s aroma during the steeping process.
Cleaning the "Yuan Zhong" is just as effortless as using it. Its unadorned surface and robust build are designed to withstand regular use, making it a practical choice for everyday tea enthusiasts.
This teapot comes from the renowned "Yi Gong Fang" workshop, a testament to Dayi's commitment to preserving the heritage of Yixing teapot craftsmanship.
