🧘 Cultural & Craft Legacy
金砂紫泥 | The Gold Sand Purple Clay
This rare clay is speckled with natural golden mica, giving the surface a subtle shimmer and a rich, earthy texture. It is prized for its breathability and visual warmth, especially under soft light.
铭文之道 | The Way of Inscription
The engraved calligraphy draws from Daoist and classical Chinese philosophy. The phrase “外事師法古，遵物之洽，隨方去形，己知其道” can be interpreted as:
“In external matters, follow the ancients; in all things, harmonize with nature; adapt to form as needed; and know the Way within.”
This reflects the teapot’s role not just as a tool, but as a vessel of wisdom.
金珠之形 | The Gold Bead Form
The rounded, bead-like silhouette is compact and balanced, offering excellent heat retention and a comforting presence in the hand.

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
