This fully handmade yixing tea pot is one-of-a-kind and available while supplies last
Crafted By Zhu Huan
Powerful, elegant and composed, this hand-made Yixing pot by artist Zhu Huan seems to glow like its namesake lantern thanks to the warm, mottled and vivid Chen Pi Hong Ni clay.
Faceted pots are always a challenge to hand-build thanks to all the joining and shaping required to pull it off with elegance, but Zhu Huan doesn’t just stop at a perfectly hexagonal pot body- she brings facets to the spot and lid handle too!
The original deposit Chen Pi Hong Ni will only grow deeper and more lustrous over years of use.
