Jingdezhen Melon-Ribbed Teapot

Quiet Balance for Everyday Brewing

Designed and crafted by a young studio in Jingdezhen, this teapot reflects a calm dialogue between traditional form and modern sensibility. Its near-spherical body, gently shaped with melon-like ridges, feels soft, rounded, and visually grounded—an object that sits naturally on the tea table without demanding attention.

The porcelain surface carries a subtle white tone, with quiet hints of pink and gray-black formed through kiln transmutation. These natural color shifts are not decorative choices, but traces of fire—revealing the warmth and unpredictability of handmade work.

How It Feels

Gentle Control, Natural Rhythm

In the hand, the teapot feels light yet stable. The relatively thin body allows heat to rise and fall smoothly, helping aromas open without rushing the tea. As you pour, the short spout delivers a quick, clean stream, giving you confidence over timing and extraction.

Each brew feels unforced—no excess drama, just steady rhythm and clarity. It’s the kind of teapot that quietly supports your tea, rather than competing with it.

The dense ball filter allows for a swift, clog-free pour, even when brewing small-leaf Pu-erh or broken Yancha.

“Good teaware doesn’t interrupt your tea.
It stays quiet, keeps rhythm,
and lets the leaves speak for themselves.”
