Yixing Zisha Teapot 220cc – Purple Clay – Hanwa Classic – Ribbed

Here is a teapot that looks as comfortable in the hand as it does in the photo. A closer look at the listing photos shows the ribbed worked in with care. At 220cc, it is sized for solo gongfu sessions.

The body is purple clay with the matte, natural finish Yixing is known for. The ribbed form keeps the profile distinctive without getting in the way of the pour. Dense clay seasons slowly but rewards patience with a smoother cup — the photos do not exaggerate. Matte finish shows the clay's natural texture, with no coating. It turns out compact size keeps water hot and opens leaves fast. Daily use is the whole point — this pot was made for it, as it should be.

A fine addition to a growing collection or a strong first pot. This is the kind of purchase you stop noticing because it just works. A reliable brewer with looks that hold up over time.
