🧘 Cultural & Craft Legacy
The Ruyi form is steeped in auspicious symbolism—its name meaning “as one wishes.” Often seen in imperial art and Buddhist iconography, the Ruyi shape represents harmony, fulfillment, and spiritual blessing.
Crafted from raw ore purple mud (Zi Ni), this teapot reflects the mineral richness and breathability of Yixing clay. Its large capacity makes it ideal for family brewing or professional tea service, while the built-in strainer ensures smooth pouring and leaf integrity.
This piece is not only a brewing tool but a ceremonial vessel—honoring the lineage of Gongfu tea, the symbolism of Ruyi, and the quiet power of handcrafted clay.
🔮 Material, Firing & Form Geometry

Form Geometry
- Shape: Ruyi-inspired body with curved spout and looped handle; lid features a sculpted knob for ceremonial grip
- Lid & Handle: Ergonomic and balanced for stable pouring

Brewing Performance
The breathable clay body retains heat while allowing subtle oxygen exchange, enhancing aroma and softening tannins. The large volume supports extended steeping and shared tasting sessions.

🧴 Care, Patina & Aging
- Use exclusively with one tea type to cultivate a consistent patina
- Rinse with warm water only; avoid soaps or abrasive cloths
- Air dry naturally in a well-ventilated space
- Over time, the clay will darken and develop a soft sheen, reflecting your brewing habits and tea preferences
- Mineral speckles and pinholes are natural and do not affect performance
The patina is a quiet archive—each infusion a trace, each trace a story.

Note:
–About the parcel:
If You Receive The Package Broken, Please Don’t Open Dispute and Leave Negative Feedback, Please Contact Us Firstly, We Will Deal With It, Don’t Worry !
–About the product:
The product may have certain differences from the photos due to ambient light, camera parameters, screen color, etc. Please refer to the physical object you receive.
The product size and capacity are manually measured, and there may be certain errors. It is for reference only. Since the batches of fired are different and accompanied by thermal expansion and contraction, please refer to the physical object received.
–About ceramics:
The porcelain you bought has black spots/pinholes because the raw materials contain iron and other minerals naturally formed after high temperature firing. The qualified products selected after quality inspection will not affect the use. However, if you remove the black spot pinholes, you must use chemical raw materials to remove them, which will greatly harm the good porcelain itself.
–About texture:
The textures formed by high-temperature daily tea utensils are naturally randomly formed in a kiln that passes through more than 1,000 degrees, and cannot be controlled or avoided. Although the nodes or textures naturally formed by bamboo and wood products during the growth of trees are avoided as much as possible during the processing process, they cannot be manually screened and removed. This situation is not a product defect.
The package contains: 1 x Teaware
