Hammered Texture Soy Glaze Ceramic Tea Caddy - 250g
Hammered Texture Soy Glaze Ceramic Tea Caddy - 250g
The ClayZenith Hammered Texture Soy Glaze Ceramic Tea Caddy (250g) is a classical airtight storage vessel engineered to safeguard premium whole-leaf teas against humidity, air oxidation, and ambient light degradation. Featuring a rich, iron-saturated soy reduction glaze (Jiangyou) and an organic hammered dimple relief (Chuimu Wen), this jar balances antique wabi-sabi tactility with functional food-grade preservation.
Material Science & Airtight Preservation Engineering
Cast from dense, high-fire mineral stoneware and fired at 1,280°C (2,336°F), the thick ceramic walls provide complete opacity and superior thermal inertia, shielding delicate tea compounds from UV light and temperature fluctuations. The precision-fitted ceramic lid is wrapped in traditional natural breathable linen cloth, creating an airtight, odorless mechanical seal that locks in volatile tea aromas without utilizing synthetic rubber or chemical glues.
