Handmade by a potter from Yixing, China. This Junde shape Yixing teapot is half handmade using original mine clay. Zhuni is a type of Zisha (紫砂）Clay in Yixing, and it is known for its outstanding performance in creating teapots. The Zhuni teapot makes the taste of tea becomes soft, smooth and the flavor is very long lasting. 

The design of this shape is very simple and cute: the wide open mouth of the teapot allows you to add tea leaves easily, and the round bottom of the teapot allows you to welcome any shapes of tea. It’s designed with convenience and performance in mind, while to the eye, it's a simple cutie pie.

Zhuni clay contains extremely fine particles, therefore it is very sticky and elastic. It also has two distinguish characteristics：
1. Clay is rich in iron
2. Clay contains less percentage of zinc, copper or magnesium.

Zisha (紫砂) clay from Yixing is highly valued because of the porous nature of the clay. As you use it, oils from your tea moisturize the pot, which can in turn season it and enhances the flavor of the tea that you use it with over time. For this reason, we recommend dedicating your new Yixing teapot to one type of tea only, such as ripe puer, raw puer, oolong, black tea, etc, and never wash it with soap or anything else besides water.
