Crafted By Zhu Huan

Master Potter Zhu Huan celebraties the evocative lotus with this beautiful and fully hand-sculpted piece.

The lotus flower thrives and blossoms in the mud, a symbol of the journey from the chaotic to the fully and spectacularly realized,. 

With an Yixing pot, this symbolism is especially poignant since the beauty of Yixing comes from mud itself - in this case a spectacular aged Zi Ni clay full of subtle mottling. 

Just as the lotus serves as a pedestal for Buddhist sculpture, Zhu Huan's pot uses the lotus as a pedestal for both the potand for the tea it will enrich, growing more lustrous with each session.
