Luo Han Teapot

This gorgeous Yixing teapot is made from genuine forty-year-old zisha (purple-sand) clay. They are all handmade by Master Chen Ju Fang of Master Zhou’s “Wu Xing Shan Fang” studio (she is his wife). We had “Light Meets Life” stamped on the bottom of these pots.

This is an "arhat" shaped teapot. Arhats are Buddhist saints. The pot is said to resemble a saint seated in meditation, especially if you cover the handle and spout. The original pot of this shape was made by Chen Mingyuan, who is a Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) master and one of the most famous Yixing masters of all time. This shape of the pot is Wu De’s favorite and is good for all types of tea.
