Minglu Kettle (Chinese Tea Set) is crafted using traditional hand-throwing techniques, resulting in a warm and smooth feel, a delicate body, and a smooth surface.  It offers a comfortable grip and possesses both practical and aesthetic value, as well as collectible appeal. With a capacity of approximately 110 ml, it's a suitable size for various teas, including green tea, black tea, oolong tea, and Pu-erh tea. The spout is smooth and delicate like jade, ensuring an even pour with the tea flowing smoothly without leaving any residue. A unique feature is that during firing in the kiln, various coloring elements in the kiln undergo slight oxidation-reduction reactions with the clay, giving the teapot its distinctive color. Please note: This tea set is fragile; handle with care and store in a cool, dry place to maintain its condition. For any questions, comments, or suggestions, please contact us at dofo@dofotea.com or call +86 18927110833.

What defines the design of a Minglu Kettle? ›

It features a grounded, sturdy design inspired by traditional Chinese stoves or cauldrons, projecting a sense of stability.

What teas are recommended for the Minglu Kettle? ›

Its structure is excellent for maintaining high temperatures, making it a great choice for brewing Ripe Pu'er and dark, roasted Oolongs.

Does its wider base offer any brewing benefits? ›
