Unique, playful, and artisanal, this tea pot is one of the kind coming from craftsman in Jing De Zhen city in China, which is the cradle of ceramics and pottery in China. It is kilned with high fire. This particular shape of the pot is known in Chinese ceramic terminology as "Si Ting Hu" 思亭壶, which literally means "Missing the Pavilion“, and it is originally and traditionally only seen with Yi Xing Clay Tea Pot. Every detail is painted by hand with a Chinese antique yet playful design depicting a summery scene of gold fish and lotus flowers in a small pond.

Whether you use it for tea, or leave it on your table or shelf, it stands out to tell its fairytale eagerly.
