1. Due to the unique nature of handmade teapots, the color and size of the teapot may vary slightly due to different firing temperatures each time. There may be slight color differences and shrinkage or enlargement in size and capacity,or the product may have a slight deformation,this is a characteristic of handmade teapots, which are not made by machines.. Different batches of teapots may differ, but we try our best to ensure their consistency. Before shipment, we carefully inspect each teapot to ensure that it meets the standards. but this cannot be used as a reason for return. If you are concerned, please purchase with caution.
2.Our teapots are all photographed in real life. Apart from the color differences caused by firing temperature, different displays may also cause the colors on the website to differ from the actual product.
3.Our teapots are all handmade, including the teapot body, spout, and lid. Due to the individual craftsmanship, there may be slight color differences between the different parts of the teapot. Please don't worry, this is a normal occurrence。
There are two methods for the handmade production of teapots, which differ in the way the teapot body is made.
The first method involves using purple clay to hand-beat the basic shape of the teapot body, which is then fitted into a mold. The mold is used to precisely adjust the flatness and curvature of the teapot body along the inside, allowing it to be quickly formed.
The second method completely hand-adjusting the flatness and curvature of the teapot body.
We refer to the first method as half handmade and the second method as fully handmade.
The difference between them is the efficiency of making the teapot body, with half handmade production being able to produce two teapots per day, while fully handmade production requires three days to one teapot.
Another important difference is that most half handmade teapots have a relatively smooth and delicate interior due to the use of molds for compression, while fully handmade ones are not modified on the inside and are shaped by external compression. The interior of a fully handmade teapot is relatively rough and has shrinkage lines, which is the most important indicator for distinguishing between fully and semi-handmade teapots.
There is no difference between half handmade and fully handmade in other parts of the teapot, such as the spout, handle, and lid.
Most of our teapots are made using the half handmade. Fully handmade teapots will be specially marked. If you have any custom requirements, please contact us for more information.
If you use it for drinking tea, there is no difference between a half handmade teapot and a fully handmade teapot, their difference is only a matter of craftsmanship.
If you are a teapot collector, you can choose to purchase a fully handmade teapot. Each teapot is meticulously crafted by skilled artisans and has unique details, making it a true work of art. As a collector, you can appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into each teapot and add it to your collection.
As a beginner, it is recommended to choose a teapot with a capacity of 180-220cc(ML) or more, focusing on practicality. A 200ml teapot can serve 1-3 people for tea. As your tea skills improve, you may prefer smaller and more exquisite teapots, enjoying the tranquility of brewing tea alone. Especially when the tea leaves are more expensive, a smaller teapot is more practical and can brew tea faster, known as "gongfu tea".
In short, different sizes have different applicable scenarios. If a certain capacity cannot meet your needs, please contact us or customize a handmade teapot that belongs to you.
We recommend that novice buyers of Yixing teapots prioritize purchasing Zi ni, Jiangpo ni, and Gold Duan ni as these clay materials have a large market supply and are less likely to be made with chemical materials. As you become more knowledgeable about other clay materials, you can consider purchasing Dicaoqing ni, Qing Duan ni, Lv ni, and Hong ni. However, we advise against purchasing Zhu ni as many fake teapots are made with this material. The pinnacle of Zi ni is Tianqing ni, which is as rare as Dahongpao and can only be found in museums.
Apart from the 8 types of clay materials that appear on our website, all other clay materials in the market are usually chemical blends. These teapots often have a shiny and attractive surface, emit a scent that cannot be removed, and are usually favored by buyers. However, it's important to note that genuine Yixing teapots typically have a matte texture and are not brightly colored, and some may even appear unattractive.

This is a very grand topic that requires you to comprehensively judge based on the following points:
1. whether the clay material is genuine,
2. whether the shape is aesthetically pleasing;
3. whether the workmanship is exquisite.
As a novice, you have never purchased a yixing teapot or observed the entire process of making a handmade teapot, so it is very difficult to judge whether it is genuine or not. More than 95% of the teapots on the market are made of chemical materials, which can harm your health at any time. However, you can preliminarily judge the authenticity of a yixing teapot by following these tips:
1. Do not buy teapots that cost less than $200.
2. Novices should only buy Zi ni and Duan ni.
If you meet the above two criteria, you can filter out more than 90% of the chemical teapots.
