Shi Piao is a handcrafted Yixing-style teapot made from traditional mineral-rich zisha clay. The Shi Piao shape is one of the most iconic forms in Yixing teaware, appreciated for its balanced proportions, practical design, and timeless appearance. The warm reddish-brown clay body features natural mineral speckles that highlight the character of the material and give each piece a unique look.
The Shi Piao form is distinguished by its low profile, three-footed base, and elegant flowing lines. With a capacity of 260 ml, it is ideal for gongfu tea sessions with 1–2 people and allows loose-leaf teas to fully develop their flavor and aroma. The porous nature of zisha clay helps the teapot develop character over time with regular use. The set includes two matching teacups in the same style, creating a complete tea experience right out of the box. An artisan certificate is also included.
