In the vast world of tea wares, each teapot has its unique soul. Today, we are delighted to introduce a fully hand - made Gongchun pot with a bamboo - joint - shaped handle in Duan clay, custom - made for Tongxin She Teahouse.

This Gongchun pot with a bamboo - joint - shaped handle is like a work of art emerging from the depths of time, exuding a simple and charming aura. Every detail, from the shaping of the pot body to the carving of the handle, bears the marks of manual craftsmanship. The Duan clay of the pot body has a warm and rustic texture, as if telling the stories of the years. Its natural and smooth texture is a unique mark born under the fingertips of the master, far beyond what mass - produced machines can imitate. The handle is designed in the shape of bamboo joints. The lines are strong and powerful yet full of agility. The shape of the bamboo joints is vivid, not only adding to the ornamental value of the pot but also conforming to ergonomics in terms of grip, embodying the perfect integration of practicality and artistry. During the fully hand - made process, Master Huang Dan, with her exquisite skills, precisely controls the proportion and line direction of the pot body, making the entire pot harmonious and full of ancient charm.
As a classic teapot shape, the Gongchun pot carries profound cultural heritage.

Bamboo, in Chinese culture, symbolizes perseverance, nobility, and modesty. The design of the bamboo - joint - shaped handle makes this pot not just a tea - making utensil but also a spiritual sustenance.
