Dong Fang Ming Zhu Teapot 東方明珠 Features & Benefits Elegant Pearl-Inspired Form Dong Fang Ming Zhu 東方明珠, meaning “Pearl of the East,” features a full, rounded body with a softly domed lid and simple spherical knob. The generous curves are balanced by an upward-reaching spout and rounded handle, creating a graceful and harmonious silhouette.Aged Duan Ni Clay Crafted from aged Duan Ni 老段泥, the clay displays a naturally subdued, earthy tone with fine mineral texture visible across the surface. The aged clay gives the teapot a quiet, understated character that emphasizes the beauty of the material rather than ornamentation. Versatile 200 ml Capacity At 200 ml, this is a generous and practical size for sharing tea. Its rounded body provides ample interior space for tea leaves to open and circulate freely during infusion, making it particularly versatile across different styles of loose-leaf tea. Handcrafted by Huo Hong Wen The teapot is made by Huo Hong Wen 霍紅文, with an emphasis on balanced proportions, smooth transitions, and the natural character of the clay. The restrained design allows the craftsmanship and material to remain the focus.

Its larger capacity also makes it especially practical when serving tea for several people.

The body is broad and softly curved without appearing heavy, while the small spherical lid knob echoes the idea of a pearl. Its simplicity gives the piece a timeless quality—traditional in spirit, yet clean enough to complement a contemporary tea setting.
