Handmade Yixing Zhu Ni Clay Teapot with Silver Inlay – Xi Shi Pear Shape, 130ml

This handmade Zhu Ni clay teapot is inspired by the classic Xi Shi pear shape, a timeless Yixing design known for its balanced proportions and smooth pour.

Crafted from high-density purple clay (Zisha), this teapot enhances aroma and depth in oolong, pu-erh and black teas. The natural porous structure of Zhu Ni clay gently absorbs tea oils over time, developing a richer patina with use and making each brewing session more personal.

Delicate silver inlay detailing adds a subtle artistic accent without overpowering the purity of the form. The rounded body, short spout and compact lid create precise control over water flow — ideal for gongfu-style brewing.

It is traditional Yixing clay — dense, warm to the touch, and valued for its ability to elevate tea rather than simply hold it.

A piece for slow rituals, daily use, or thoughtful gifting.
