"Squirrels in Pine" - 15 ounces (2 cups) Anyone who's ever watched two squirrels play in a tree will appreciate this rustic design. Tree branches form the spout and handle with more pine branches draping over the body and on the lid. A bushy little squirrel waits with excitement by a branch on the lid while his buddy hides down the side behind another branch. Fun little details include a spout that projects the tea up and out when pouring (a bit like a fountain) and a lid air hole that is hidden in the bend of the squirrel's tail. Accessorize with Zhu Ni clay tea cups. $47.00 Add to Cart! |

"Gold Lection" - 5 & 3 ounces (< 1 cup) Mr. Liang created each of these small, stunning little zisha teapots with impossibly fine carvings of Chinese characters over the body and lid. Each is completely hand made and etched by Mr. Liang with the carved recesses highlighted in gold. Over 260 characters cover each teapot. When looking closely, you'll be able to see Mr. Liang's careful hand-work....from the lid to the base and the obvious care he took in all details.

"Swirl" - approx. 9-11 ounces (1+ cups) Ms. Chang Wan Fen has crafted a beautiful assortment of hand-pulled zisha clay teapots for Sensational Teas and you may choose the exact teapot you'd like to own. Click on each image to see the larger, more detailed, version. A variety of clay colors were used including a medium red-brown, creamy tan, vanilla caramel, teal and grey. The proportion of each color is different for each design with some being predominantly brown and others having more cream or teal. The designs vary as well. Some are a bit taller and narrower while others are shorter and wider. One other difference is the lid, some have a revolving "bead" that moves and some do not. $42.00 Add to Cart! |
