It is the first Shui Ping I bought : this classic austere shape always seemed to me a bit plain, but this piece is a fine example of why its appeal can be so strong. The details (the spout, the handle, the lid) are very refined and it gives a slender profile to the pot, enhancing the experience, along with the cristal like chime given by the firing. The pour is great and precise and it is a very handy tea ware to use. The clay works great with my dancongs. Many thanks !
I am very pleased with this pot : its apparent sturdiness is deceiving because when you handle it, it looks and feels light, elegant, refined. The firing is excellent, with the clay producing a high pitched chime, which adds to the pleasure of the experience. Most of all, it brews great tea with young and semi-aged pu-erh. I feel fortunate to have gotten one of the few models made with the cute Tai Hu Shi knob. Many thanks and congratulations to Chen Gui Zhi for her masterful work !
Not only does it look beautiful, it feels beautiful in the hand, and brews some incredible tea. I’m sure this will be the first of many pots I purchase from this store, 100% worth the price.
I'm stunned by the beauty of this pot and honored to have and use it! The craftsmanship is amazing and the clay is fantastic! Highly recommend!
I’m absolutely thrilled with my new Ming Lu teapot, crafted by the talented Chen Gui Zhi. The pot is made from rare Hong Jiangponi clay, this teapot is both stunning and incredibly functional. The craftsmanship is beautifully balanced, with a perfect lid fit and elegant form.
What truly sets it apart for me is how it enhances the flavor of the tea. The clay brings out rich, smooth, and nuanced notes I hadn’t tasted before. Every cup feels like a new experience. This pot is a work of art—both to look at and to brew with. Highly recommended!
