Yixing Purple Clay Teapots | Cha Zhi Ji

Yixing Zisha Teapots – Graded Performance, Artisan Legacy

At Cha Zhi Ji, we believe a teapot should reveal the true flavor, energy, and elegance of tea. That’s why every teapot in this collection is handmade using aged ore clay from Yixing (老紫泥), refined through traditional methods and long-term cellar aging.

Our exclusive five-grade system — Diamond, Jade, Gold, Silver, and Bronze — categorizes each teapot based on how it enhances aroma clarity, body texture, and brewing softness.

  • Diamond: Supreme performance in aroma, smoothness, and fullness ★★★★★
  • Jade: Elegant texture, floral aroma, and balanced clarity ★★★★☆
  • Gold: Warm depth and versatility for daily brewing ★★★★
  • Silver: Stable and subtle — great for neutral steeping ★★★
  • Bronze: Smooth and practical — a beginner-friendly option ★★★

Each pot naturally patinas with use, deepening flavor and aesthetic over time. Whether you're a seasoned Gongfu brewer or collector, find your perfect teapot here.
