Fang Gu Hu Design

Fang Gu Hu is a classic Yixing form recognized for its structured body, clean lines, and balanced proportions. Compared with softer, more rounded forms, its silhouette has a more upright and composed character.

The drooping-ear handle adds a distinctive detail to the otherwise restrained design, while the engraved decoration gives the unglazed Zhuni surface additional visual character.

Is 290ml Right for You?

At 290 ml, this is a larger Yixing teapot suited to more generous Gongfu brewing sessions and sharing tea with family or friends. If you normally brew alone, a smaller pot may be easier to handle.

Handmade Details

Each teapot is individually handmade, so minor differences in clay color, surface, dimensions, handle shape, or capacity may occur. These variations are a natural part of handmade Yixing teaware.

Care

After use, remove the tea leaves and rinse the teapot with clean water. Allow it to dry naturally with the lid open and store it in a dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid soap, strong detergents, and airtight storage.
