This teapot is a modern Qin Quan (秦權) style piece made by Jiang Liping (蔣麗萍), a nationally recognized Assistance Arts and Crafts Master in China. Crafted from Duan Ni (段泥) clay, this teapot exemplifies classical form with a contemporary finish—both functional and collectible.
The Qin Quan teapot takes its name from the standard weights used during the Qin Dynasty. Its design, popularized since the Qing period, features a narrow, upright body with a small opening and a pointed lid—symbolizing balance, integrity, and grounded elegance. The form is ideal for retaining aroma and heat, making it especially suitable for strip-style teas such as Wuyi rock teas, Phoenix Dancong Oolongs, or Chinese black teas like Zhengshan Xiaozhong and Keemun.
The material of the teapot, Duan Ni, is a natural yellow-brownish color clay blend known for its sandy texture and excellent porosity. Duan Ni enhances tea by gently moderating temperature and allowing nuanced aromas to emerge gradually.
Overall, this Duan Ni teapot can perform reliably across a wide range of tea types, making it suitable for both tea beginners and tea enthusiasts.
