Hei Jin Gang Clay is a blend of Zi Ni (Purple Clay) and Bao Lan Zhu Ni.  It's dark in color with some purple and brown with a small amount of sand mixed in.  Porous and perfect for seasoning with Pu-erhs or Oolongs.  It's also good for Hei Cha (like Fu Brick, Tian Jian or Liu Bao).

Volume is 155ml (+/- 10ml)

 

Artist's Name and Background:  Xia Cai Hong is a graduate of the Yixing Academy of Clay Arts.  She's from a teapot crafting family that's been creating works of art in Yixing for three generations.  Her favorite teapot styles are "Fang Gu" and "Rong Tian".  Her father Xia Fu Ru is now retired but worked in Yixing Factory #1 starting in the 1970's after the end of the Cultural Revolution.

Every pot is hand-made and the artisan will sometimes change the stamps they use. There may also be some slight differences in the color, handle shape, and volume. It's not possible for us to re-take the pictures for each new batch of teapots that we receive from this artisan. Some differences in the color and shininess of the actual teapot you receive as compared to the one in the photographs may also be due to light conditions when the photographs are taken. Thanks for your understanding!

Bonita, pequeña y precisa

"Me sorprendió un poco el color, menos mostaza o anaranjado que en las fotos, y sé que los brillos de las fotos desvirtuan a veces y tambien que todas las teteras no son iguales ... Pero es muy, muy bonita y se lanza muy bien el té. La he sazonado con Baguashan Bao Zhong de la primavera pasada. Aunque suelo hacer el té de Taiwan en teteras de porcelana o gaiwan, queria tener una tetera para el oolong poco tostado de primavera de Taiwan.... Y va perfecta"

Gorgeous

"Very pretty teapot, make sure not to overfill it with leaves and to extract all of the water at every infusion, otherwise the bitterness of the second infusion really messes it up."

— Berto R. (5/5)

Love this pot!

Awesome little teapot!

"For the price this is an amazing teapot. Lid fit is very nice and quality over all is very good. The blended clay smooths tea very nicely and seems to be great for oolongs and dark teas."

— A. C. (5/5)

Beautiful and nice teapot

"I am very pleased with this teapot. It pours nice. It has got a nice shine after seasoning and with the use. I use it for ripe puerhs as it is very porous, so the aging flavours gives special esence to the teas when brewed in it."

— Anibal P. (5/5)

Q&A

What kind of strainer/filter does it have? Ceramic ball, steel, or a single hole? Can you include a photo?
Multiple holes, not ball.
