The Chinese phrase “如鱼得水” (rú yú dé shuǐ) translates to “like a fish in water.” This idiom symbolizes harmony, comfort, and being in one’s ideal environment, much like a fish thrives naturally in water. In the context of the teapot, it likely represents the perfect synergy between the teapot, tea, and the tea drinker, creating an ideal, harmonious tea experience. The phrase embodies a sense of natural ease and balance, making it a fitting addition to a teapot used for peaceful, enjoyable tea sessions.

The clay’s porous nature allows it to absorb and enhance tea flavors over time, making each brew richer than the last. With a capacity of 180 ml, it is ideally suited for intimate tea sessions, delivering a concentrated and flavorful experience. Its material will develop a distinctive patina with use, enriching its color and texture while adding to its charm and value.
