Chinese kungfu teapot / gongfu teapot

Duanni is a shade of sand that is naturally gray-green before firing and yellow after firing.
Duanni is highly porous, Duanni teapots are breathable teapots due to their high porosity. It soaks up the mineral and essential oil in tea and becomes smooth and shiny after frequent use.
