Such surfaces are prized for their unique, one‑of‑a‑kind color pools, streaks and iridescent sheens.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nShape note: expect a six‑sided body with flat facets, a relatively low (horizontal) profile, a fitted lid that echoes the polygon, and balanced spout and handle set for comfortable pouring. The faceted geometry highlights the kiln‑change glaze as light catches each plane; small irregularities and flame marks are characteristic and part of the appeal.\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWood-fired handmade Yixing teapot made from Duanni clay sourced from the original Huanglongshan mine.
