Produced by Dayatang, a classic creation by intangible cultural heritage inheritor Hong Jike. Volume: Approx. 1000 ml; Weight: Approx. 600 g

The silver teapot has a flattened belly, and the shoulder is decorated with a phoenix pattern reminiscent of pre-Qin bronzes, with a delicate cloud and thunder pattern as the background. Two phoenixes face each other. The silver teapot is as smooth as frost, and the vermilion knob adds to its dynamism. The body is wrapped in red vines to insulate it from the heat, a thoughtful design. This teapot has an antique shape, and the three-bend spout is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. It features a red agate handle and an old vine-woven handle, making it an elegant teapot.

Produced by Dayatang. Made by Hong Jike, inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of silver forging techniques.

Hong Jike (1971b.), a Bai ethnic minority, learned the traditional crafts of gold, silver, and copper handicrafts from his father from a young age. He is a state-level inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of silver forging and a master of arts and crafts in Yunnan Province.

The phoenix motif is one of the decorative patterns on ancient bronze ware. The divine phoenix is ​​a very traditional Chinese motif. In mythology, it is the king of birds, the most beautiful of all feathered creatures, and is followed by hundreds of other birds when it flies, thus revered as the king of birds. In the minds of the ancients, the phoenix was an auspicious bird. It was prevalent from the Shang Dynasty to the early Western Zhou Dynasty.

The Shuowen Jiezi (a dictionary of Chinese characters) states: "The phoenix is ​​a divine bird. Tian Lao said: 'The phoenix has the appearance of a swan in front and a deer behind, a snake's neck and a fish's tail, cheekbones and forehead like a mandarin duck, dragon patterns on its back, a tortoise's back, a swallow's jaw and a chicken's beak, and all five colors are present. It comes from the land of virtuous gentlemen in the east, soars beyond the four seas, passes Kunlun, drinks from the Dipu River, washes its feathers in the Ruoshui River, and never rests in the Fengxue Cave. When it is seen, the world is at peace.'"
