135ml WoodFired Zhongcaoqing Lixing Yixing Teapot Woodfired which closed in 2000This Lixing (pear shape) is a classic, with historically many variations. This is modelled on a Qing dynasty pot. This pot is wood fired. This is made from a high quality aged Zini clay, called Zhong Cao Qing, from Yixing's Huanglongshan. It was collected in the early 2000's by someone who deals with small batches of original ore. He stone ground and processed it without any additives (other than water!). This works very well for puerh, wuyi yancha
