This listing is for a small production-ware Yixing style teapot made around 20 years ago. It has a smooth red finish and it’s moulded to resemble a phoenix.  It has a capacity of 150ml, and there’s a built-in strainer over the spout area.  This piece has a slightly waxy and stained finish suggesting that it may have been polished with something, it is possibly better to use it for display only. The stamp of the maker can be found on the bottom.

Yixing refers to wares made from Yixing clay in the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu. This particular type of clay is commonly used for the production of teapots. The best teapots are made from purple zisha clay because of its excellent porosity and heat handling properties.
