Dearest Friends, we present our new collaborative Craftsman, Wang Jian Long, and we asked him to do his best for you friends.
This is what we had discussed and specially arranged with him.
Wang Jian Long succeeded to impress us.
This is a very excellent Yi Li Zhu! Very beautifully formed.
1. Looking at the absolutely natural-flowing, silhouetted spout, we know it came with lots of effort and experience.
2. The lid is of the difficult Qian-Gai interface, whereby the lid sits INSET into the top surface of the pot.
3. The overall organic form and PERFECT proportions of this lovely and beautiful Yi Li Zhu.
Appreciate and cherish this latest collaborative hard work and successful pot out from the kiln. We welcome our new and invited collaborative Craftsman Wang Jian Long. We thank him and he too is very glad to be with us.

This pot has the discontinuous and roughly horizontal marks in the inner walls, and these are called the: 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen, which are the marks left on the clay slab , complementary to the marks on the workbench of the Craftsman Wang Jian Long!!!🙇♂️🤗🎋 During the making of FHM ZiSha pots, the Craftsman will be using tools to cut the clay slabs, etc, and these leave marks on the studio workbench. Especially the first major forceful cut across the table to delineate the clay she/he wants to utilize to form the main body of the body. Thus when the craftsman subsequently pound the clay slab on a well-worn workbench which bear these cut-in marks, these marks will be etched complementarily onto the clay slab! Thus you are "enjoying" the additional natural hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade pot. (For example, a partially handmade pot will not show these marks). And for those Jigger-machined pots, what they manifest are CONCENTRIC, continuous circular lines, all parallel to one another.
Wonderful packaging. This is my first order and the teapot quality is the best I’ve seen!
This teapot looked absolutely adorable in the photos but shows its excellent craftsmanship all the more when in use. It is crafted perfectly and well balanced for a great pouring experience - the stem on the lid matches the curve of my fingertip when holding the lid during pouring, and the handle is just the perfect size for my finger to firmly hold the teapot. As always, the team at RealZisha offers amazing quality zisha teapots at an incredible price.
the craftsmanship is top notch. i really like the low profile and wide opening. makes it very easy to use with bigger leaf and easier to clean. definitely recommend to anyone in the hunt for a pot this size and shape. i would buy it again. two thumbs up from me
Love the puffer fish style. The recessed base makes it even more special. Fantastic work. This is a very special addition to my collection.
This is my first fully handmade zisha and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. The form is so balanced and well-crafted. It is so light! The pour is like glass, I’ve never experienced anything like it. I am truly grateful to Chen Fa Chu and RealZisha for being and doing what you do. Thank you.
