Peony Teapot Xi Shi Stone Yellow Clay Magpie Carved 500ml

Peony Teapot — Xi Shi Stone Yellow Clay Magpie Carved Yixing, 500ml

A scene from nature, captured in clay. This Xi Shi teapot is hand-carved with lifelike peonies in full bloom and magpies perched on branches — a classic composition in Chinese art symbolizing joy, prosperity, and good fortune. Crafted from raw ore Stone Yellow clay (石黄泥), which fires to a rich dark red or black tone with a dense mineral structure and smooth surface. At 500ml, it’s one of the most generous Xi Shi forms available.

Design & Symbolism

• Peony carving: Symbol of wealth, beauty, and nobility — hand-carved with lifelike detail across the rounded body
• Magpie on branch: Symbol of joy and good news (喜鹊登枝) — a beloved motif in traditional Chinese painting
• Xi Shi form: Round, full body with short spout and balanced handle — one of the most beloved classic Yixing shapes
• Harmonious composition: Spout, handle, and lid unified in proportion — reflects traditional Chinese aesthetic balance

Why Stone Yellow Clay

• Dense mineral structure: Smooth surface with rich dark red or black tone after firing
• Aroma enhancement: Authentic Yixing clay gradually absorbs tea fragrance — enhances aroma and flavor over time
• Smooth, controlled pour: Short spout delivers a concentrated, drip-free flow
• Living patina: Develops a richer, more personal character with every brew
