Nixing Teapot 200ml

This teapot is made from natural Nixing clay, a material valued for its ability to open tea gently, evenly, and with depth. In terms of performance, Nixing is comparable to Jianshui clay: it highlights flavor nuances, keeps the infusion clean and expressive, and preserves aroma without muting it. The Pin Xiang (Xiao Ping Pan Hu, ) shape is low, rounded, and well balanced. This classic form is designed for stable heat behavior and a smooth, controlled pour. It works especially well with darker and aged teas, where consistency and clarity are essential. With a 200ml capacity, this teapot is an excellent size for pu-erh, hei cha, and aged oolongs. The volume allows the tea to open fully without excessive bitterness or heaviness. The teapot is fully handmade using traditional techniques. The proportions are precise, the lid fits securely, and the pour is fast and even — exactly how a well-made working teapot should perform in regular tea practice.
