【Introduction】Shi piao is one of the classic shapes of the purple clay pot. It uses a triangular geometric pot body to show the tough and natural lines, and in the transition, it highlights the softness and beauty, the strength and the softness, and the charm. It is believed that most of the shi piao pots in the hands of pot friends are mostly round, but square ware is rare, because the craftsmanship is more complicated in the shape of a shi piao, and it also tests the artist's grasp of the shape of the vessel. "Eight" in Chinese culture symbolizes auspicious fortune, happiness and well-being. This shi piao is made from eight directions, and the overall shape is unified and coordinated through the transition and connection between straight and curved, and line and surface, showing tolerance.
【Brewing Advice】 It is more suitable for brewing pu-erh tea, old white tea, oolong tea, black tea, etc. It is recommended that one tea type served in one teapot.
