Caramel & Turquoise Hand-Painted Pear-Shaped Gongfu Teapot

140ml

£45.00

The body is crafted from a refined, high-fired stoneware with a soft, matte "Eggshell" finish. It features subtle, natural speckles that mimic the organic look of weathered stone. The base and lower body carry a warm, toasted caramel undertone, providing a grounded, earthy foundation.

The lid is finished in a striking, deep turquoise-green glaze with a distinctive "shagreen" (sandy) texture. This bold splash of color represents the dense canopy of a pine tree, offering a sophisticated tactile contrast to the smooth body.

Each teapot features a unique, hand-painted pine branch. Using traditional "Xie Yi" (freehand) brushstrokes, the artist captures the resilience and grace of the pine. The delicate needles and aged bark are rendered with a touch of gold and moss-green, making each piece a unique work of art.

The Pear-shaped silhouette is a favorite among tea connoisseurs. Its wide bottom and tapering top allow tea leaves to expand fully while concentrating the aroma, ensuring every pour is fragrant and precise.
