Fine, flowing grooves wrap around the body of this Chaozhou teapot, giving its surface a lively texture that catches the light. A gently flared shape, compact lid, and traditional loop handle create a warm, balanced appearance.

Made by Zhang Zhuxiang in Chaozhou, China, this pot is part of an eight-teapot commission for New York Tea Society. With more than 30 years at the wheel, Zhang continues the region’s tradition of making small pots for Gongfu tea.

Its 80–100 ml capacity invites you to slow down, brew small infusions, and follow a tea as it develops from steep to steep.

Preorder available. Expected shipping: November 1, 2026.
