Dragon egg ceramic and silver teapot
$204.00
Ceramic and silver teapot, a Dragon egg as we like. Pure ovoid lines, shine and luminosity for superb artisanal pottery. Its refined, precise pattern executed by hand takes shape with the plated silver, and gives a feeling of depth and relief. The dragon, emblem of wisdom, power and luck, can be a magnificent masculine present. The egg represents life, projects.
The process of silver gilding is to grind 99.9% silver into fine powder melted at high temperature in ice water, and then paint the surface of the teapot. It is annealed at high temperature so that the silver takes shape with the ceramic. Then comes polishing, of which we can see the traces of manual intervention. We then proceed to execute this wonderful Dragon motif, rich in color, detail and precision.
This teapot has the same qualities as a silver teapot. Remember that silver is germicidal and bactericidal, it softens the tea water which makes it tastier "it has the softness of silk" say the ancients.

Hammered silver teapot and cloisonné flowers
$2,846.00
A superb craftsmanship for this pure silver teapot. Indeed, we observe a double know-how, hammering, shaping and partitioning. The result is a work of art, the enamel of the flowers and butterflies is subtly pigmented in gradation, while the thin partitioning on the hammered silver is clearly visible around the patterns. The smooth handle and spout stand out brilliantly, like the lid button.
Small reminders: The technique of cloisonné consists in forming the design by welding thin partitions, here of silver. It is then sufficient to fill the cavities formed by the enamel. For the shaping and the hammering of the silver, the craftsman would have needed thousands of hammer blows.
Silver has anti-bacterial properties, the ancients used it for the preservation of foodstuffs. They said water is the mother of tea and the pot the father of tea. But also with silver the water becomes as soft as silk, the tea is improved.

Bird and foliage silver teapot
$2,792.00
A marvel, this silver teapot. Shaped with such delicacy that the patterns of leaf petals and bird under the flowers seem to have been treated like a painting. The silver, however harshly engraved and hammered, lets us imagine the softness of the pink of the petals and the tender green of the foliage, with a blue-gray background (you see?) every detail is a delight. The smooth, plump spout pops out of that sweet mess. The sandalwood lid knob sits on a delicate pattern, which we perceive the expert engraving. A pleasure for the eyes, for the senses.
The extra silver has a beneficial effect on the water, so the tea. "the water is clean" say the Chinese.
