Lian Xiang Qing Yuan Yixing Teapot | Raw Shi Huang Yellow Zisha Clay | Handcrafted 330ml

Lian Xiang Qing Yuan — Lotus Fragrance, Drifting Far & Clear

A summer morning. A still pond. The lotus blossoms have just opened, and their fragrance — pure, cool, and impossibly delicate — drifts across the water and into the air, carrying with it a sense of perfect clarity and unhurried peace. This is Lian Xiang Qing Yuan (莲香清远): lotus fragrance, drifting far and clear — one of the most beloved images in Chinese classical poetry, and the soul of this extraordinary teapot.

Hand-formed by a master artisan in Dingshu Town, Yixing, Jiangsu, from authentic raw Shi Huang (石黄) yellow Zisha ore clay — one of the rarest and most visually captivating of all Yixing clays — the Lian Xiang Qing Yuan Yixing Teapot glows with a warmth and purity that perfectly embodies its name.

Shi Huang — Stone Yellow Clay, Rare as Morning Light

Shi Huang (Stone Yellow Clay) is among the most uncommon and most coveted of all Zisha clays — a natural ore of warm, luminous yellow tone, as rare and as beautiful as the first light of a clear morning. Its color sits between the golden warmth of Duan Ni and the cool purity of celadon — bright, honest, and deeply alive — giving it a visual presence that is immediately distinctive on any tea table.

Like all authentic Zisha, Shi Huang possesses a dual micro-pore structure of exceptional breathability and density. Brew your finest teas in this pot and experience them at their most pure and complete: no aroma lost, no flavor diminished. Only the true, whole essence of your tea — as clear and as honest as the lotus fragrance itself.

With devoted use, the stone yellow surface deepens and warms — developing a rich, honeyed luminosity that grows more personal and more beautiful with every tea session. Every wipe, every fill, every quiet moment of tea adds to its story. This is yanghu: the living art of seasoning your teapot, and with a clay as rare as Shi Huang, the transformation is a privilege to witness.

Rounded, Generous & Perfectly Balanced

The Lian Xiang Qing Yuan silhouette is full, rounded, and beautifully grounded — a form of generous proportion and natural ease that sits with quiet confidence on the tea table. The interior push-ball spout filter ensures a smooth, unobstructed pour, while the overall structure — spout, handle, and body flowing as one unbroken gesture — rewards both the eye and the hand with every use. At 330ml, it is perfectly sized for an intimate session for two or a generous solo brew.
