Shishi - Ya'an Dark Sand Persimmon Tea Vessel

Crafted from rare native black mineral sand of 雅安 Ya'an, Sichuan, this gaiwan boasts a raw, grainy texture and deep matte dark tone shaped by natural kiln firing.
Molded into a plump persimmon shape with a delicate persimmon calyx knob on the lid, it carries the auspicious meaning of "all things go well".
The dense sand body locks heat evenly for perfect tea brewing, blending wabi-sabi rustic charm with practical tea ritual function.
