This 75ml Little Gourd (迷你葫芦) Yixing Teapot (excluding the cup shown in the image) features the delightful mini gourd shape, a symbol of health, longevity and good fortune. Its small volume excels in concentrated tea brewing, making it ideal for solo sessions.
The teapot is handmade from Ben Shan Lv Ni (本山绿泥), a premium clay from Huanglong Mountain with high titanium content and dual-pore structure. Fired twice at 1180°C, it achieves a stable, fine-grained surface with a subtle greenish-gold hue. This composition provides superior breathability and selective adsorption and excellent brewing characteristics for green, white and light oolongs.
