The recommendations are as follows:

    Teapot Capacity Suggestions Tea Suggestions
    <150 ML Single person Green tea, white tea, yellow tea, lightly fermented oolong, floral teas, light Pu'er. Enhances fragrance and taste for single-person brewing.
    150-250 ML 1-3 people Green teas (Longjing, Biluochun), white teas (Bai Mudan, Baihao Yinzhen), yellow teas (Junshan Yinzhen), lightly fermented oolong (Baozhong, Tieguanyin), floral teas, lightly flavored Pu'er.
    250-350 ML 4-6 people Medium-fermented oolong (Da Hong Pao, Wuyi Yancha), black teas (Keemun, Dianhong), aged Pu'er, herbal teas (Rose, Chrysanthemum), flavored teas.
    350-500 ML 6-8 people Heavily fermented oolong (Tieguanyin, roasted Da Hong Pao), black teas (Dianhong, Lapsang Souchong), aged Pu'er, large-leaf green teas, most aged teas.

    Zisha Clay Tea Suggestions Remarks
    Zi Ni A full range of teas, especially dark fermented varieties, including black tea, dark tea, and ripe puerh. Zi ni has larger clay particles and a loose structure, often with a double-hole design for good airflow and ventilation. Ideal for dark, fermented teas, and helps the teapot develop beauty over time.
    Duan Ni Green tea, raw puerh, Tie Guan Yin, white tea, and other similar varieties. Duan Ni is a blend of Lv Ni and Zi Ni clays, with a light yellowish color. It’s better suited for lighter-colored teas, and using it for darker teas may cause color streaks, altering the teapot’s appearance.
    Lv Ni Puerh tea, lightly roasted oolong tea, semi-fermented teas, dark tea, and heavily fermented teas. Lv Ni has a fine texture with good elasticity and smooth, compact feel. The teapot’s color transforms over time, becoming jade-like, adding elegance and enhancing aroma retention during brewing.
    Zhu Ni High-aroma teas, such as oolong tea and strong-flavor Tie Guan Yin. Zhu ni has low sand content and high shrinkage, resulting in small teapots. It’s excellent at retaining the fragrance of high-aroma teas, enhancing the tea’s overall aromatic profile.
    Jiangpo Ni Oolong tea (raw tea, lightly roasted series), Tie Guan Yin (medium-roasted or heavily roasted series), Puerh tea. Jiangpo ni has large particles and a reddish-brown color, rich in iron. It has excellent heat retention properties, making the tea more full-bodied and robust with a rich fragrance during brewing.

    The design inspiration for the "Xishi" Teapot comes from the legendary beauty Xishi, one of the Four Beauties of ancient China, whose stunning allure was said to have the power to topple kingdoms. The spout of the teapot cleverly symbolizes Xishi's lips, while the body of the pot mirrors her full chest. The area where the water is held evokes an elegant jade plate filled with fresh spring water. The inward-curved bottom ensures the teapot’s stability, preventing accidental tipping. The handle, inspired by the graceful hairstyles of ancient Chinese women, takes the form of an upside-down ear. This unique design not only enhances its cultural beauty but also provides a comfortable and ergonomic grip. The graceful curve of the handle mirrors the slender waist of a beautiful woman, combining aesthetic appeal with practical functionality.

    Among the many styles of Zisha teapots, the "Xishi Teapot" stands out for its classic design and unique charm, making it one of the most beloved teapot shapes.

    This classic Zisha Teapot design features a rounded body, a truncated lid, a short spout, and an endearing handle, which together exude a simple, ancient beauty. Its form is dignified and refined, conveying both stability and elegance. Whether it's the smooth water flow from the short, straight spout or the comfortable grip of the inverted circular handle, every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship. The seamless integration of the truncated lid with the body further showcases the fine workmanship. The pot’s surface is smooth and unadorned, yet it radiates pure, natural elegance, making it a perfect representation of tea culture.

    The most distinctive feature of the Xishi Teapot is its simple form and well-defined lines. The curves gently stretch from the center of the lid outward, tapering back smoothly toward the body, with a subtle twist at the bottom that creates a sense of closure. The lines are soft yet decisive, without visible seams. The lid is both thin and round, skillfully executed.

    In the world of Zisha teapots, the Xishi Teapot is like a beauty who does not wear makeup but exudes a graceful and captivating presence. Its form and elegance perfectly reflect the timeless charm of the beauty Xishi.
