{"product_id":"moonlit-lotus-handcrafted-pure-silver-detailed-ceramic-side-handle-teapot","title":"Moonlit Lotus | Handcrafted Pure Silver-Detailed Ceramic Side-Handle Teapot","description":"\u003cp\u003eMoonlit Lotus combines classical blue-and-white floral ornament with genuine pure silver detailing in a distinctive ceramic side-handle teapot handcrafted in Dehua. Its gently rounded body is balanced by a compact pouring spout, an extended horizontal handle and a raised cylindrical lid, creating a composed silhouette inspired by traditional Chinese side-handle teaware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe decoration centres on the traditional scrolling lotus motif (纏枝蓮). Cobalt-blue lotus blossoms, curling leaves and continuous vines move around the body, shoulder and lid of the teapot. Rather than appearing as isolated decorative panels, the interconnected pattern follows the rounded form of the vessel and gives the composition a continuous sense of rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine outlines throughout the design are finished using traditional ceramic silver-cladding (陶瓷鎏銀). Pure silver is applied selectively to the lid, spout, side handle and ornamental details, introducing a restrained metallic lustre that becomes more pronounced as light moves across the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pure silver detailing does not overwhelm the blue-and-white decoration. Instead, it defines individual lotus petals, curling stems and decorative contours while creating a layered contrast between reflective metal, softly glazed ceramic and deep cobalt colour. The raised silver work also gives the surface greater visual depth and a distinctly tactile character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the lid is a removable cylindrical ceramic infuser with closely distributed perforations. The infuser provides a contained space for loose tea leaves while allowing water to circulate during brewing. When lifted from the teapot, the brewed tea drains through the perforations into the vessel below, separating the leaves from the tea liquor before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe horizontal side handle keeps the hand positioned away from the heated body and provides a balanced grip during pouring. Its silver-detailed surface carries a carved wood-grain-inspired texture, adding definition while helping the handle feel secure in the hand. A rounded spout guides the tea into the cup with a controlled stream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe teapot provides room for whole leaves to infuse while remaining compact enough for focused Gongfu brewing. Its pale interior offers a neutral setting for tea preparation and keeps attention on the colour and clarity of the tea liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMoonlit Lotus is available on its own or paired with one of two coordinating ceramic teapot plates. Both plates provide a dedicated resting place beneath the teapot, help contain occasional drips between infusions and create a more composed presentation. The included plate design and dimensions depend on selected style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePresented in gift packaging, Moonlit Lotus is designed as both a functional brewing vessel and a considered piece of handcrafted teaware, bringing together scrolling-lotus symbolism, Dehua ceramic craftsmanship and genuine pure silver detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Origin: Made in \u003cstrong\u003eDehua\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Product:\u003cbr\u003e1 × Ceramic Side-Handle Teapot\u003cbr\u003e1 × Optional Ceramic Teapot Plate, according to selected style\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandcrafted in Dehua\u003c\/strong\u003e with traditional ceramic-making methods, each with a unique design and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dehua","offers":[{"title":"Teapot with Polychrome Lotus Tray","offer_id":49929043738776,"sku":null,"price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Teapot with Scrolling Lotus Tray","offer_id":49929043771544,"sku":null,"price":330.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Teapot Only","offer_id":49929043804312,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1425\/9096\/files\/1_fb4588e5-7acf-449d-86b9-a148124a3c60.jpg?v=1789656051","url":"https:\/\/fungtea.com\/products\/moonlit-lotus-handcrafted-pure-silver-detailed-ceramic-side-handle-teapot","provider":"Fung Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
