Throughout history, there has been a saying that "silver teapots are the most precious for boiling water and the most prestigious for brewing tea." Lu Yu, the Tea Sage, also praised silver teapots, calling them "constantly useful." Indeed, using silver teapots to boil water and brew tea has a significant enhancing effect. It softens and thins the water, creating a superior water softening effect. Ancient people described water boiled in silver teapots as "as smooth as silk," meaning the water is soft, thin, and smooth like silk, with a sweet and mellow taste, thus improving the flavor of the tea.

This Beicun Jinteng Yinhu (Golden Vine Silver Teapot) is a product of Dayatang, crafted by Hong Jike, a state-level inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of silver forging. The teapot body is made of 9999 pure silver, handcrafted from a single piece of silver. It undergoes 40 quenchings and 150,000 forgings. The design is extremely simple, a perfect combination of practicality and aesthetics. The mirror-like surface is as smooth as a baby's skin, while the pure yellow gold vines exude nobility and elegance, presenting a restrained air of refinement. The 24k pure gold vine handle adds a touch of brilliance to the simple design. The old rattan handle is rustic and elegant.

Shizuka Kitamura [1904-1976] was an important inheritor of Japanese intangible cultural heritage. Her works are characterized by their simplicity and elegance, with the body made from a single piece and the handle shaped like a bean pod.

Just as teapots created by Lu Siting are called "Siting teapots," teapots in the style of Gong Chun are respectfully named "Gong Chun" by later generations.

Due to Kitamura's status in the history of metalworking, works of this style are respectfully referred to as "Kitamura" pieces in the industry.

The exquisite craftsmanship of Chinese silverware is unprecedented, and its simple beauty and harmonious Eastern style are also admired by contemporary tea drinkers.
