Handmade by Yu Zewei (余泽伟)
A compact and balanced Apple shape teapot, fully handmade in Chaozhou from fine hongni red clay.
The rounded body allows tea leaves to open naturally, while the short, direct spout enables a very fast, clean pour. This makes it especially suitable for gongfucha sessions with quick infusions — ideal for Dancong and Wuyi oolongs where precision and timing matter.
The clay has a smooth, matte texture that will gradually deepen in tone with use. Functional, precise, and made for daily brewing.
