How to brew and reveal the color-changing motif
- Unpack the teapot, infuser, and cups; add loose leaf tea to the infuser.
- Add hot water and watch the dragon-and-phoenix decoration change appearance as the surface warms.
- Steep for your chosen tea, remove or hold back the infuser, and divide the tea among the six cups.
- Let every piece dry fully before nesting the cups and closing the case.
Heat and care
The teapot is confirmed suitable for direct heat up to 180°C / 356°F. Stay within that rating, never heat the pot empty, and avoid sudden hot-to-cold temperature changes. This handmade Zisha set is not dishwasher safe; allow it to cool, wash it gently by hand, and dry it completely before packing.
How much tea can one infusion serve?
The teapot is listed at about 250 ml with its infuser, or about 300 ml without it. Each of the six cups has a nominal capacity of about 50 ml. These measurements come from the supplied specification image.
Six completely full 50 ml cups would require 300 ml. With the infuser in place, share one infusion as smaller tasting pours, or serve fewer cups at a time and brew another round. Tea leaves and the space left below the rim can reduce the amount you actually pour.
What else should you pack?
The listed kit contains the teapot, perforated infuser, six stackable cups, and fitted case. Bring your own tea and a way to prepare hot water. A fairness pitcher and tea tray are not listed as included pieces; add them separately if your setup calls for them.
Compare this packed kit with a beginner setup built from individual pieces, or use the one-person Gongfu guide for a smaller daily table.
