A service for 2 "planet of the little prince", that of St Exupéry of course! Yes, the Chinese design of the round teapot is the very old and traditional "Xi Shi" with its short spout, its shape nevertheless lends itself happily to that of the little planet told by St Exupéry. This is a charming and poetic way of connecting our continents. Porcelain entirely gilded with silver, relief pattern, the atmosphere is soft and lunar. A nice gift to give, you can choose the version with its Chinese brocade bag.
The porcelain was gilded with pure silver (999) it was reduced to powder then melted at high temperature and cooled in iced water. Then the porcelain was annealed at high temperature so that the silver took shape.
This teapot has the same qualities as a silver teapot, however it is more affordable. Germicidal and bactericidal, silver softens the tea water which makes it tastier "it has the softness of silk" say the ancients. Let's not forget, however, that it's still porcelain!
Teapot capacity: 200ml, cups 110ml.
