23 Jul 09 Get Out Of Your Beijing Hotel: Buy Teapots!
Produced in the town of Yixing, purple clay is seen as the most suitable of natural materials for teapot production. There’s a place not far from the Beijing Guohong hotel that you just can’t miss.
Purple clay teapots are not only excellent at absorbing the flavor and enriching the aroma of your tea, but they also keep the original taste of it.
I found some delicate purple clay teapots when I went by a shop named Qing Yi, which literally means “Affection.” It’s in the Chayuan Tea City, located on the south end of the famous Maliandao Tea Street.
The array of teapots shown on the shelves were all beautiful, and a shop assistant told me that the some Chinese Zodiac animal tea cups here were originally designed by the shop owner, Mr. Chen.
The shop assistant picked up a tea cup with a special lid that had a small rooster standing on it. She opened the lid and showed me the inside of the cup. With a big surprise that I found there was a thin strainer inside that also had a rooster on it.
This strainer looked like the lid, but there were many holes in it. Pick it up to drop the tea leaves in, and use it to keep the leaves at the bottom of the tea cup when pouring. The tea leaves stay inside while the tea goes through the holes to brew a fragrant cup of tea!
All the prices of their tea cups are very agreeable, all less than $20. The price of the teapots depends on the quality. And you can also find a lot of different kinds of accessories for a tea ceremony, like little tea pets, and some famous Chinese tea too.
Another shopkeeper can speak English very well, and he’s happy to help customers learn the culture and history of Chinese tea and teaware in Beijing.
