The "Zi Han Tao" clay teapot, 220 ml, is ware for brewing loose-leaf tea at home and for tea ceremonies. This capacity suits a group of two or three people and gongfu brewing.
As shown in the photo, the teapot is low and rounded, with a flat lid and a small knob, a short curved loop handle and a short spout. The surface is matte and unpainted, in deep reddish-brown and dark burgundy shades, with a darker center on the lid. The simple shape highlights the natural beauty of the clay.

After your tea session, pour out the used leaves, rinse the teapot with hot water and let it dry with the lid open. Do not use detergents: unglazed clay ware absorbs odors. It is best to brew one type of tea in the teapot.
