This teapot is the work of Mr. Zhang, a young potter from Taichung who studied under Bai Zong-Ping and spent many years at Lin’s Ceramics beforehand. He now runs his own studio. This pot marks a new departure for Mr. Zhang’s as it is made out of porcelain instead of clay. We previously had hinted to him that porcelain would be an ideal material for him to showcase his ultra-precise craftsmanship. A year later, this is the result and as expected these are jewels of precision! This pot, along with its sibling, also mark a styling departure for Mr. Zhang. The larger size and shape make it a perfect pot for single steeping teas like Bao Zhong, Oriental Beauty or Fragrant Black Teas but they can also bring out the best in all your preferred teas. It is extremely lightweight, easy and fun to handle with its high-set handle which is perfect for swishing movements while steeping. The pot features a short and larger diameter spout for quick pours as is customary in the art of Taiwanese-style tea making. As with all of his work, the shape and execution are flawless right down to the fit of the lid and the alignment of spout, handle and lid knob. The straight spout with a generous multi-hole spherical filter make it a great fast pouring pot as required for true Taiwanese tea making sessions. The generous lid knob is easy to grasp. Finally, the finishing is certainly one of its main attractive features. This pot was fired at lower temperatures than its sibling during days of slow wood firing in a traditional snake kiln. The inside of the pot remained light-coloured and they outside proposes lovely shades of taupe browns. The pot distinctively has two different looking sides, one sporting a red flare at its base and the other a spotted caramel patch. Lighter hues appear around the more angular lines of the front spout area, lid frieze and lid knob. These aesthetic characteristics are purely accidental and the result of elements fusing during the firing process. What you see in the pictures is what you will get. Handmade in Taiwan.
