The warm yellow-brown tone and grainy texture of Jiangpo clay give this teapot a distinctly earthy character. The De Zhong form stands straight and steady on the tea table, while the rounded handle and precise spout make each pour feel controlled and intentional.
Over time, the unglazed clay absorbs the aroma of your favourite teas and develops a soft sheen that reflects your personal brewing habits. Each piece is hand-finished, so slight variations in texture and proportion are signs of individuality rather than flaws.
Care
Rinse with warm water only and avoid soap or detergent, which can be absorbed by the clay. Let the pot dry naturally after each session. For the best seasoning, dedicate this teapot to one category of tea and simply enjoy watching it grow more glossy and expressive with use.
