Xi Shi Mutton Fat Porcelain Teapot, 230 ml

The Xi Shi Mutton Fat teapot, 230 ml, is for tea lovers who value the classic Xi Shi shape. It is made from the porcelain grade with a distinctive texture recalling mutton fat: a milky tone and a translucent body.

The walls hold temperature well, so the tea stays hot throughout the session. The pot is light and comfortable in the hand.

It suits brewing a range of teas, oolongs and black teas in particular. In China a teapot is seen as a symbol of hospitality — using one at the table shows respect for guests.
