Artisan Handcrafted Yixing Zisha Teapot – Xi Shi Lao Hongni 160ml
Where Art Meets Tea Culture
The Xi Shi Yixing Teapot (西施壶) embodies harmony and beauty — a design inspired by one of China’s legendary Four Beauties. Its rounded silhouette, balanced handle, and precise pour reflect both feminine grace and centuries of Yixing teaware artistry.
Hand-crafted by experienced artisans using authentic Lao Hongni (老红泥) clay, this teapot offers exceptional breathability and mineral richness. Over time, it absorbs tea oils and develops a gentle, natural sheen — becoming a vessel uniquely yours.
Each pour is smooth and controlled, allowing tea leaves to unfurl evenly while preserving full aroma. Ideal for Pu-erh, Oolong, Black, and aged teas, this teapot connects every sip to the long lineage of Gongfu Cha craftsmanship.

Testimonials
“I drink a lot of ripe Pu’er, and FUZHI stands out for its balance and purity. The cocoa aroma and smooth finish make this my go-to tea for relaxing after meals. Every cup feels like a quiet retreat.”
This mini cake format is genius and convenient yet premium. It brews a deep, mellow cup without any bitterness. I love how grounding and gentle the Cha Qi is. You can taste the craftsmanship.”
“I'm new to Pu’er, FUZHI was a beautiful introduction. The tea is rich but not overwhelming, with a clean, earthy sweetness. I now drink it daily and even started gifting it to friends.”
