This gourd teapot combines a rounded body with a domed lid and a distinctive sculptural knob. The high, open handle offers a comfortable grip, while the compact spout supports controlled pouring during gongfu brewing.
Gourd-inspired vessels have long appeared in Chinese domestic and tea culture, valued for their organic outline and association with practical containers. Used at the table, this teapot holds the leaves while its lid helps retain heat between successive pours.
Made in China from dark brown clay, it has a softly burnished-looking surface, bamboo decoration on the front, and a curved handle echoing the natural theme. Rinse with warm water after use and dry with the lid off.
