Teapot Story

The Fish Fun Xishi Teapot draws inspiration from the legendary beauty Xishi and the auspicious symbolism of fish in Chinese culture. Xishi, known for her grace and wisdom, lends her name to this teapot, while the fish motif represents abundance and good fortune, as “fish” (鱼) sounds like “surplus” (余) in Chinese. This teapot is more than just a vessel for brewing tea—it’s a storyteller, bringing together history, culture, and art in every pour.
