Masterpiece Yixing Teapot: 'Hu Lu' (Calabash) in Authentic Duan Ni Clay by Esteemed Artisan Chu Guofeng

Presenting a masterpiece of Yixing craftsmanship, this 'Hu Lu' (Calabash) teapot is meticulously sculpted by the renowned senior craftsman, Chu Guofeng. More than a brewing vessel, it is a three-dimensional painting in clay—a symbol of good fortune, health, and scholarly elegance. Crafted from premium authentic Duan Ni clay, it embodies a perfect fusion of profound cultural heritage, superior artistry, and the timeless science of perfect tea brewing.

• A Master's Touch: Each curve of this teapot bears the signature skill of Master Chu Guofeng, a respected artisan whose works are celebrated for their vitality, precise proportions, and flawless finish. This piece is a testament to his high-level artistry and a worthy addition to any serious collection.

• The Auspicious Hu Lu Form: The calabash gourd is a deeply auspicious symbol in Chinese culture, representing blessings, harmony, and longevity. Its charming, rounded shape is not only visually delightful but also engineered for an ergonomic grip and a graceful, drip-free pour.

• The Elegance of Duan Ni Clay: Fired from classic Yixing Duan Ni, this teapot boasts a distinctive pale, natural hue and a satin-smooth texture that is pleasing to the touch. Duan Ni's excellent porosity subtly tempers and sweetens the tea liquor, making it exceptionally suited for light to medium-oxidized teas like Tie Guan Yin Oolong, Raw Pu-erh, or fragrant Black Teas.

• An Heirloom for Collection & Use: With a generous 320ml capacity, it is perfect for sharing tea with friends. As you use it, the clay will gradually develop a richer, warmer patina, deepening its character and your connection to it over time.
