 Gentle round
The sublime roundness is the overwhelming charm of this teapot. You will notice its powerful presence from the small body. The presence comes from the balance of the pear skin finish, the delicate craftsmanship, and the simple design. The design of the spout and the handle of the lid, and even the boundary of lid and body is sophisticated. This teapot has a fixed ceramic tea strainer. When brewing, it is good to allow tea leaves to move around and can make delicious teas. This is just the right size for two to three servings, and will be perfect for tea time with your friends in the afternoon.
