Scholar's Flame – Where Clay Meets Poetry

Each piece is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in Yixing, a region renowned for its centuries-old tradition of teapot craftsmanship. By seamlessly blending time-honored techniques with elegant modern minimalism, these teapots offer a profound and refined tea experience that elevates every brewing ritual, making each cup a moment of mindfulness and appreciation.

Crafted for the Contemplative Mind

Scholar's Flame is a carefully designed 230ml Yixing teapot, crafted from high-quality zhuni clay celebrated for its smooth surface, durability, and distinctive fire-red hue. This teapot is more than a vessel for brewing—it's an extension of your tea journey, engraved with calligraphic characters that pay homage to Chinese traditions of hospitality and artistry. Its low-profile shape and gracefully arching handle embody a harmony of functionality and aesthetic appeal, inspired by classic Chinese design, making it suitable for both steeping and moments of quiet study or reflection.

Features & Craftsmanship

  • Handmade from premium Yixing zhuni clay—recognized for its exceptional thermal properties, which enhance aroma development and heat retention during brewing.
  • Capacity of 230ml—perfect for practicing Gongfu tea styles, allowing for multiple infusions of delicate teas such as oolong, black teas, and aged pu-erh, encouraging mindful sipping and savoring.
  • Distinct flattened silhouette with an elevated foot supports stability, while the single-hole lid knob ensures ease of use and aesthetic balance. The wide spout facilitates a controlled, smooth pour, minimizing drips and preserving the integrity of your teas.
  • Intricately carved with traditional poetic texts, adding a literati charm that invites introspection and elevates your tea ritual into a cultural experience.
  • Equipped with a built-in multi-hole filter, designed to provide a clean, uninterrupted pour and prevent loose leaves from escaping, enhancing the purity of every infusion.

    • Designed for Gongfu Simplicity

    This Yixing teapot excels with teas such as oolong, black, and aged pu-erh, where the clay's superior heat retention and porous nature maximize flavor while mellowing astringency. The inscriptions serve as gentle reminders that each guest and every pour are meaningful, inspiring a mindful approach to tea tasting. By focusing on simplicity and skillful brewing, this teapot encourages a meditative experience rooted in tradition yet suitable for contemporary tea enthusiasts seeking depth and nuance in their practice.

    Care & Cultivation

    Prior to first use, rinse with boiling water to prepare the porous zhuni clay for absorption and seasoning. It is recommended to dedicate this teapot to a specific type of tea to preserve its unique flavor profile over time. Avoid using soap or detergents that could interfere with the natural absorption process. With continued use, the surface will develop a natural satin sheen, beautifully aging and enhancing the character of the clay, which in turn enriches the aroma and taste of your brewed teas.
