Jun De Yixing Zisha Gongfu Teapot

A member of the China Arts and Crafts Association born in Jiangxi.  He first learned porcelain production in Jingdezhen and later attended Yixing Arts and Crafts Academy for advanced studies. Tan Zheng’s specialty is the shape and design of purple clay teapots, and he has gradually formed his own artistic insights and personal style. His works have been collected by Yixing Museum many times and favored by many collectors. 

Yuan Kuang Zhu Ni or original ore pure clay without coloring or powders added, and the red tone is pure and bright at the beginning.  Over time it develops a beautiful bronze tone that is impossible to replicate.  

There is an artistic and functional standard for evaluating Yixing teapots, refining tea-making by appearance alone.  After considering the quality of the material, a balance exists between beauty and function.  As tea lovers, our propensity is shape and style, which enhance the flavor of tea.  These classic, refined shapes are a perfect canvas to create a deep luster and patina over time.
