Description from the seller

This is a Yixing zisha teapot, a traditional Chinese ceramic known for its unglazed, porous surface that gradually absorbs tea oils over time.

The teapot has a lobed form resembling a melon or pumpkin, decorated with reliefs of grapevines and leaves.

The lid is finished with a small, detailed squirrel knob, a popular motif in Chinese decorative art symbolizing fertility and abundance.

The craftsmanship emphasizes the natural texture and earthy tones of the purple clay, characteristic of the potters' art of the Yixing region.

Excellent condition.

Dimensions
12x15 cm

The item is packed with the utmost care and shipped with track & trace.
