Yixing Factory 1 | Veteran Master Ji Junhua
1980s Vintage Fluted "Wan Ju" (Chrysanthemum Bowl) Zisha Teapot
Vessel Curation / Yixing Factory 1 Vintage Zisha TeapotJiangsu, China・Yixing Purple Clay Craft Factory 1
Curatorial Notes
An exquisite masterwork of fluted ribbed craftsmanship from the golden 1980s era of Yixing Factory 1. Handcrafted by seasoned artisan Ji Junhua, this classic "Wan Ju" (Chrysanthemum Bowl) teapot combines the graceful posture of a tea bowl with the intricate petals of a blossoming chrysanthemum. Formed from pure original ore purple clay (zini), the surface offers a tactile, granular depth free of artificial sheen. Decades of natural maturation allow the clay to absorb fine tea infusions effortlessly, developing a warm, deep luster that celebrates the harmony between precision geometry and natural form.
Vessel Form & Tea Space Aesthetics
Vintage Purple Clay & Superb Heat Retention: Sourced from authentic 1980s Factory 1 reserves, the dense micro-porous structure retains heat evenly. It excels at drawing out rich sweet notes and velvety textures from roasted oolongs and vintage teas.
Seamless Fluting & Fluid Ergonomics: Fluted segments radiate symmetrically from the finial through the body to the base, demanding exacting tolerance so the lid seats cleanly at multiple angles. The poised spout delivers a smooth, clean stream with balanced pouring comfort.
