Dragon Tea Set Purple Clay Relief Carved Yixing 11-Piece

Dragon Tea Set — Yixing Purple Clay Relief Carved, 11-Piece Gongfu Set

Forged from purple clay ceramic with exceptional hardness and a natural metallic texture, this 11-piece dragon tea set produces a distinctive metallic ring when struck — a hallmark of premium Yixing craft. Through unglazed grinding, fine polishing, and buffing, each piece achieves a smooth, luminous finish as if polished by the hands of time. The lifelike dragon relief carvings are applied while the clay is still wet, creating three-dimensional patterns that stand apart from the body in vintage, classical elegance.
