Handmade Cherry Red Bird Lid Soda Firing Teapot
Handmade Cherry Red Bird Lid Soda Firing Teapot
Handmade by a potter in Jingdezhen, China, this teapot features a dark cherry red and smoky black glaze, which appears glossy and partial matte. It was created with refined clay. During the firing, soda is added resulting in a unique texture, pattern, and color. The lid design is inspired by spring birds. Hope it brings you a more pleasant experience when you brew tea.
Traditional wood-fired kilns have become rare in China today. The laborious process of wood-firing creates a unique, natural glazing, that can’t be achieved in more common and easier to use electric kilns. The special texture, color, and pattern of wood-fired teaware is a result of direct exposure to fire and ash over a long period, making wood-fired teaware some of the most sought-after teaware today.

Additional Information:
It’s food-safe, of course. And also dishwasher safe. However, I strongly recommend that you wash and dry it by hand, and use it gently. Please do not use on an open flame, gas or electric stove-top. And try to avoid alternating hot and cold, which could cause cracking.
