Yixing
( pronounced Yee-shing ) is a small city that became famous due to a
unique type of clay that is only found there. This unique clay is called
Zisha. Zisha Clay is found in five different colors...red, yellow,
green, black and purple. It has been used in pottery for over 3,000
years. The properties of the clay make it the perfect vessel for brewing
tea. With use, the teapot absorbs the flavors of the tea which enhances
future batches. Zisha Clay Teapot should never be washed with soap and
water; just rinsed with water and allowed to drip dry.
