A purple clay tea set from Yixing city, China is 70 US Dollars.

 

Some 400 years ago, Chinese Emperor Qianlong declared Yixing teapots to be ‘the teapot of teapots.’ Today, tea lovers worldwide could not agree more.

Celebrating a Zen moment, this Chinese tea set represents a lotus in full bloom. In China, a lotus is the flower of spiritual purity.

Check out the button, the handle, and the body’s textured design. You will discover the beautiful details of the celebrated plant.

Fine Chinese characters on the side state the artist's desire to bring you perfect flavor.

The clay used to make this Yixing china tea set is known to absorb the aroma of tea. As you boil tea in your pot, it retains some of the flavor, and makes your next infusion even tastier

.

 

Old tea drinkers say the more you use it, the softer the surface of the set!

Tea pours out smoothly thanks to the perfectly straight alignment of the spout and handle. A clever ‘breathing hole’ pierced in the lid ensures that your tea flows steadily out of the pot. Also, a built-in strainer keeps tea leaves inside and your cups clear.

Use the largest, colorful ‘Gong Dao’ cup for mixing tea to achieve a perfect serving. Then pour your tea in the smaller teacups. Their white glaze interior displays the true color of your favorite drink.

This lotus bud tea set was created in Yixing, a small town in eastern China. Yixing purple clay can only be found there, and experts say local reserves will exhaust in a few short years.

 

Such a beautiful tea set is therefore bound to become rarer and rarer.

 

Legend has it that a beggar once had an Yixing purple clay teapot. The tea he made out of this pot had such a good reputation that many wealthy men offered their property and jewels to the beggar in exchange for that clay pot. Yet the beggar refused every offer: the status the pot had given him was greater than any fortune.

Won't it be great when this happens to you? When your friends come over to enjoy tea, would you be willing to sell your purple clay tea pot?
