Wereldmuseum

The teapots that best enhance the tea are made in Yixing, west of Shanghai, from a local clay called zisha (purple sand). It is fired at high temperatures to produce a stoneware that is waterproof without the need for glazing (as with earthenware) while remaining porous, which preserves the heat, flavor, and aroma of the tea.
