Highly prized by the scholars and artists, Yixing teapots were perceived to bring out the best flavor of fine Chinese teas and collected for their whimsical designs and elegant beauty, meet a golden period after 500 years of improvement. Benefits Yixing teapots are usually unglazed in order to allow the natural color of the clay to shine through. This material is 100% toxic free and is completely safe to drink from. This also helps to keep the tea hotter than porcelain, making the Yixing teapot a perfect brewing vessel for most kinds of tea, like red,white,green oolong and black teas, which benefit from a higher water temperature. Since the Yixing teapot is fired at lower heat, it can withstand sudden temperature changes without cracking, making it especially durable. The porous nature of Yixing clay makes the teapot very absorbent, which helps to bring out the best flavor in fine teas. Over time, the lining of the pot will acquire tea deposits and this seasoning will enhance the taste, color and aroma of the tea. Additionally, the appearance of the pot will change as it is used and the surface will become more glossy and the color more intense. Value Remarkable advances have been made in skill in recent decades and the quantity of ZiSha clay decreasing year after year. The teapots made by master in these years have more use value and collection value than at any other time since. A teapot made by Gu Jingzhou (1915-1996),the leading authority, has fetched RMB 17,825,000 ( about $2,500, 000 ) at auction in 2011,which is no more than $10,000 twenty years ago. Maintenance Because the Yixing teapot is so absorbent, it is recommended that only one type of tea be used per pot, to avoid contaminating the taste of the tea. Do not use the Yixing teapot on the stove. Heat water for tea in a teakettle. After using, empty the leaves and rinse with cool water. Invert the pot and let air dry completely. Do not wipe dry with a towel. Do not use soap or dish detergents, as this will contaminate the flavor of the next pot of tea.
