Zisha Teapot with a Tri-handle, Yixing Ware
The teapot has a round body, a swelling stomach and a flat bottom. Above the cover is a loop-shaped tri-handle, tactfully bowing in a natural way. The round lid slightly bulges with a knob imitating a Taihu stone. The yellow clay is close-textured. The handle fits into the body so well that the teapot is characterized by liveliness and artistic balance.
After the mid Qing dynasty most of the single loop-handled teapots were changed to double-handled which have greater stability and artistry.
