Yixing Green Clay Xishi-Style Teapot - 260 ml
A compact, traditional Xishi-style teapot crafted from green Yixing clay, designed for focused gongfu brewing and everyday tea practice.
This is a small-format teapot with a rounded body, short spout, and balanced handle — built for control, not display.
- Type: Xishi teapot (classic spherical form)
- Material: Yixing green clay (uncoated, porous)
- Capacity: ~260 ml
- Origin: Yixing, Jiangsu, China
- Craft: Hand-finished (not fully handmade)
- Pouring system: multi-hole (ball filter) inside spout
- Opening diameter: ~5.4 cm (wider than traditional, easier handling)
Form & Proportions
- Rounded, low-profile body — even heat distribution
- Short, slightly curved spout for controlled pour
- Circular handle with comfortable grip
- Lid sits flush with a tight seal and knob grip
Material: Green Yixing Clay
Green clay (often called lüni) behaves differently from standard purple clay:
- Slightly more porous → softens water texture
- Helps round out sharper notes in tea
- Develops patina over time with use
Brewing Experience
- Fast heat absorption and retention
- Smooth, steady pour (multi-hole filter prevents clogging)
- Wide opening makes:
- loading tea easier
- cleaning more practical
Best used for:
- oolong
- pu-erh
- black tea
- aged white tea
Real talk
- This is not high-grade collectible Yixing
- Likely machine-assisted or semi-handmade
- Clay may be blended, not pure ore
But:
- Still functional
- Good as an entry-level gongfu teapot
- Suitable for daily use, not investment
Who it’s for
- Someone starting with gongfu tea
- Someone who wants a dedicated pot for one tea type
- Someone who values function over status
