Dragon Egg Gong Fu Teapot 120ml

The Xishi (西施) teapot is one of the most enduring forms in the tradition of Yixing teaware, celebrated for its balanced proportions, gentle curves, and quiet elegance. Named after Xishi, one of the Four Great Beauties of ancient China, its rounded silhouette has long been associated with grace, harmony, and refined simplicity. Whether inspired by her likeness or simply by the ideals she came to represent, the form has remained a timeless expression of beauty through restraint.

Highly regarded among Gongfu tea practitioners, aged Yixing develops a smooth, responsive character that is both pleasing to hold and well suited to the quiet rhythm of daily brewing.

Left unglazed, the clay gradually takes on the memory of each tea session, developing a gentle luster through years of use. Over time, the vessel becomes more than a brewing tool it becomes a companion to the practice itself, carrying the subtle imprint of water, leaf, and hand.

With a capacity of approximately 120 ml, the Xishi is thoughtfully proportioned for intimate Gongfu tea sessions, inviting an unhurried pace where each infusion can be observed with care. Its soft, rounded form rests naturally in the hand, bringing together craftsmanship, tradition, and the quiet presence that defines the ritual of tea.
