Plum Blossom Purple Clay Teaware Set (Teapot with Four Tea Cups)

The density of purple clay is comparable to that of porcelain, yet it is not translucent due to the high content of iron and silicon, hence is described as something between porcelain and earthenware. “Clear clay” contains tiny bubbles which contracts during baking, allows the vessel to “breathe” freely. The scale-like molecule structure of this material has low heat conduction level, keeping the fragrance and flavor of the tea well-preserved inside the pot. Purple clay teapots will not crack even if filled with boiling water or exposed to rapid temperature change.
