The bamboo pattern is very elegant and the whole design is very unique.

this handmade kettle is made by the local experienced kettle artisan, Guyue, who has devoted to pottery for 40 years in Chaozhou, where is famous for Chaozhou Gongfu tea stove and kettle. Additionally, it's also called "Shadiao". Chaozhou kettle can make your boiling water softer and sweeter thanks to its breathable particularity, which differs from other kettles.

The performance of a brew of tea is almost determined by how many positions the tea leaves can release in boiling water. Among them, the amount of calcium and magnesium dissolved ions in water is the factor that determines the ratio of tea water extracts (theanine, polyphenols, caffeine, etc.). Therefore, Chaozhou kettle multi-porosity and rich combination of ingredients are capable of adsorbing calcium, magnesium and other compounds to purify water and create space for volatilization of tea. That's why we say boiling water after Chaozhou Shadiao will be softer and sweeter.
