Handmade Yun Si Fang Wood-fired Yixing Teapot (ZiSha: DuanNi)
This Yun Si Fang teapot (蕴四方) is a good example of Yixing craftsmanship. The name can be translated as "Harmony of All Sides" or "Embracing the Four Directions". The word 蕴 (Yun) implies "to embrace," and 四方 (Si Fang) refers to the "Four Directions" (North, South, East, and West) or "all sides." The name and the shape reflect the philosophy of balance, harmony, and completeness in all aspects. The teapot's shape combines the softness of rounded forms with the grounded feel of square elements, creating a design that feels fluid yet stable. The lid's button follows the natural flow of the form, while the teapot's spout ensures effortless pouring. For the best pouring experience, tilt the teapot gradually. There's no need to press down on the lid. Thanks to its "90º lock" design, the lid stays securely in place on its own. The handle is shaped for a comfortable grip, making it easy to pour with ease. Functionality and aesthetics come together beautifully in this thoughtful design. Beauti
