"Rongtian" yixing teapot takes its inspiration from the "big-bellied" Arhat in Buddhism, named after the saying "a big belly can hold the world's affairs". It is difficult to fully capture the charm of this teapot, as it requires the maker to truly understand its essence. A slightly shorter neck is added to the full-bodied teapot, while the lid is raised to a half-spherical shape, giving it a simple and childlike charm. The teapot has excellent pouring performance and is comfortable to use. Visually, it exudes a dignified and generous aura while embodying depth within simplicity.
