Handcrafted Original Ore Iron-Clay Palace Vermilion Red Xishi Teapot - 190ml Gongfu Teapot
Handcrafted Original Ore Iron-Clay Palace Vermilion Red Xishi Teapot - 190ml Gongfu Teapot
The ClayZenith Iron-Clay Palace Vermilion Red Xishi Teapot (190ml) is forged from iron-rich mineral clay (Tietaici) and coated in rich Forbidden City vermilion reduction glaze. Combining high-iron water-softening physics with the spherical grace of the Xishi form, this teapot delivers exceptional mouthfeel and heat stability.
High-Iron Mineral Body & Water Softening Dynamics
Fired at 1,300°C (2,372°F), the 8%+ natural iron matrix gently softens water hardness, reducing harsh astringency and drawing out sweet, honeyed undertones in roasted Oolongs, black teas, and aged Puerh. The weighted base ensures rock-solid stability on the tea table.
